Chloropepla rolstoni Grazia-Vieira, 1973: 14–16 , fig.1; Grazia, 1987: 476–477 ; Grazia et al. 2008b: 535 . Diagnosis Medium size (male: 14.61; female: 14.1). Humeral angles triangular. Male. Pygophore quadrangular, almost as long as wide. Dorsal expansions of hypandrium narrow, posteriorly convergent; ventral wall with apical bilobed process and 1 +1 medial mushroom-like processes. Paramere narrowing from base toward apex. Phallotheca without processes. Secondary gonopore U-shaped. Female. Gonocoxites 8 quadrangular; sutural margins parallel along the whole extension. Laterotergites 8 and 9 nearly equal in length. Pars intermedialis striated along the anterior two thirds. Two processes of capsula seminalis barely reaching the posterior annular flange, one nearly reaching the posterior margin of this flange ( Grazia-Vieira 1972a ). Distribution: French Guyana (Guyane), Bolivia (La Paz), Brazil (AM, new record). Phylogenetic considerations Chloropepla rolstoni and C. caxiuanensis are sister species, both sharing humeral angle lined by black ( 40 ) and marginal process of dorsal rim digitiform and long ( 181 ).
