“…Since the revision, ten contributions were made to the taxonomy of the genus, including the transfer and redescription of Alpaida tullgreni (Caporiacco, 1955) (Levi, 1993), the description of five males and one female of species previously known only from one sex (Buckup & Meyer, 1993;Rodrigues & Mendonça, 2011), and the description of 12 new species (Abrahim & Bonaldo, 2008;Santos & Santos, 2010;Buckup & Rodrigues, 2011;Braga-Pereira & Santos, 2013;Deza & Andia, 2014;Dierkens, 2014;Saturnino et al, 2015). In this paper we described a new species of Alpaida based on both sexes.…”

ABSTRACT. We described a new species of spider, Alpaida clarindoi sp. nov. (Araneidae), from the southwestern Amazon forest. The new species is distinguished from most Alpaida by the presence of a pair of shoulders spines. Females can be separated from similar species by the subquadrangular shape of the epigynum, and males by the shape of the terminal apophysis and the tegulum, which possess an apical pointed tip. Alpaida clarindoi sp. nov. is described based on both sexes.KEYWORDS. Spiders, Arachnida, Taxonomy, Neotropical Region.RESUMO. Nova espécie de Alpaida (Araneae, Araneidae) de Rondônia, Brasil. Nós descrevemos uma nova espécie de aranha, Alpaida clarindoi sp. nov. (Araneidae), da região sudoeste da floresta amazônica. A nova espécie se distingue das demais pela presença de um par de espinhos dorsais na parte anterior do abdome. A fêmea difere de espécies semelhantes pelo formato subquadrangular do epígino, e o macho pelo formato da apófise terminal e do tegulum, que possui um espinho apical na borda. Alpaida clarindoi sp. nov. é descrita com base em exemplares de ambos os sexos.

“…After Levi's work, a handful of papers about the genus were published, adding 11 species and one subspecies to the genus (Levi, 1992;Buckup & Meyer, 1993;Abrahim & Bonaldo, 2008;Framenau et al, 2009;Santos & Santos, 2010;Buckup & Rodrigues, 2011;Rodrigues & Mendonça Jr, 2011;Braga-Pereira & Santos, 2013;Dierkens, 2014;Deza & Andía, 2014;Poeta &Lise, 2015 andSaturnino et al, 2015).…”

ABSTRACT. Alpaida venger sp. nov. is described based on males and females from Pedra Branca State Park, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This species seems to be related to Alpaida scriba (Mello-Leitão, 1940) and Alpaida alticeps (Keyserling, 1879) due to similar body shape and color, but is easily distinguished by the very elongated median apophysis, the massive lobe of tegulum and the hooked paracymbium of male palp. Females have elongated epigyne as A. scriba, but can be distinguished by the wider lips and shorter scape.KEYWORDS. Neotropical Region, spiders, taxonomy, Atlantic Forest.RESUMO. Uma nova espécie de Alpaida do Sudeste do Brasil. Alpaida venger sp. nov. é descrita baseada em machos e fêmeas do Parque Estadual da Pedra Branca, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. Esta espécie parece relacionada a Alpaida scriba (Mello-Leitão, 1940) e Alpaida alticeps (Keyserling, 1879) devido a similaridades no formato e cor do corpo, mas é facilmente distinguida pela apófise média muito alongada, ao particular lobo do tégulo e ao paracímbio em forma de gancho do palpo do macho. Fêmeas apresentam epígino alongado como A. scriba, mas podem ser diferenciadas pelos lábios mais largos e escapo mais curto.
