Diagnosis
.
L. quadrinotatus
belongs to the
L. viridis
group of species, with males very similar to those of
L. elegans
,
L. remotus
and
L. mandibulatus
, from which they can be distinguished easily by the straight ventral edge of their long and pointed median apophysis, and their short, robust and straight embolus with a thickened embolar base (
Figures 1-2
). Females resemble those of
L. bryantae
,
L. unicolor
,
L. adisi
and
L. trinidadus
by their epigyna with anterior copulatory openings, posterior spermathecae, and short copulatory ducts. However
L. quadrinotatus
females can be identified by their epigynum with a rounded posterior border, longer copulatory ducts with posterior glandular ducts (arrow in
Figure 3
), and deeper and wider copulatory openings (
Figures 3-4
) (
Galiano 1962
,
1980
).
Distribution
(
Figure 5
). Previous known from
Venezuela
(
Aragua
) (
World Spider Catalog 2018
). Here I add new records from
Brazil
(Amazonas,
Pará
) and
Colombia
(
Putumayo
). This species was collected in a pitfall trap in a highly-conserved Amazonian-Andean rainforest forest in
Colombia
, and in two wellconserved Amazonian forests in
Brazil
, the first records of the species from the southern hemisphere of South America.
