They are distinguished from the latter species by the epigyne with slightly pear-shaped MS (Figs 62) (triangular in <i>S. keyserlingi</i>). Males are unknown.</p><p><b>Description, Female (holotype):</b> Total length 15.3. Prosoma: 6.6 long, 6.2 wide. Opisthosoma: 8.5 long, 4.7 wide. Eyes: diameters: 0.55, 0.40, 0.35, 0.40; interdistances: 0.35, 0.30, 0.65, 0.72, 0.40, 0.35. Legs: I: absent; II: 31.1 (9.0, 3.5, 8.1, 8.2, 2.3); III: 22.2 (6.7, 2.7, 5.7, 5.5, 1.6); IV: 23.9 (7.5, 2.7, 6.3, 5.6, 1.8). Spination follows the generic pattern except patellae I–IV: d0. Epigyne: EF slightly wider than long; MAB embedded in EF; MS almost two times longer than wide, widest medially, slightly constricted anteriorly; TP slightly wider than long; LL touching posteriorly (Figs 62, 68). Vulva: FW posteriad; GP as wide as long, arising from ducts at second turn; SP irregularly rounded; FD antero laterad (Figs 63–64, 69).</p><p><b>Male:</b> Unknown.</p><p><b>Variation.</b> Females (n = 4): total length 15.3–18.5; prosoma length 6.6–7.5; femur I length 8.3–8.9. Epigyne: MS slightly shorter, less than two times longer than wide; TP slightly anterior to posterior margin (Figs 65, 70). Vulva: internal ducts with FW more dilated covering second turn and GP (Figs 66–67, 71).</p><p><b>Distribution.</b> Northwestern South America, in Colombia and Brazil (Amazonas) (Fig. 89).</p>
