Abstract

A new genus of Sparianthinae, Extraordinarius gen. nov., is proposed to include the type species, Extraordinarius andrematosi sp. nov.(male female), from Sao Paulo, E. brucedickinsoni sp. nov.(male female), from Minas Gerais and Espirito Santo, and E. klausmeinei sp. nov. (male) and E. rickalleni sp. nov. (male female), from Espirito Santo. The genus is remarkable in that it is the only Neotropical genus of Sparianthinae with a large, sclerotized, Z-shaped conductor in the male palp and represents the southernmost record for the subfamily in the region. A distribution map is provided for all known species of the genus. (AU)
