Ero natashae sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: DC475BB8-DEBF-41C2-AC9F-9476840FB9B5 Figs 10–13 Ero aphana – Unzicker 1977: 127–129 (misidentification). Diagnosis Ero natashae sp. nov. can be distinguished from the male of E. lizae sp. nov. by smaller abdominal tubercles (Figs 10A–D) and by the shape of palpal structure, namely: 1) retrolateral cymbial process hooked, thinner and more developed conductor (retrolateral cymbial process non-hooked and conductor wider and less developed in E. lizae), and 2) lower dorsal triangular extension of paracymbium much smaller (lower dorsal triangular extension significantly larger in E. lizae). Ero natashae sp. nov. can be differentiated from E. aphana by the blunt hooked retrolateral cymbial process (retrolateral cymbial process more prominently hooked in E. aphana), and the different shape of the paracymbium and conductor (cf. Figs 10E–F, 11, 13A–B). Females can be distinguished from both species by its epigyne (Figs 12, 13C–D) with narrow copulatory openings and a ... : Published as part of Sherwood, Danniella, Henrard, Arnaud, Peters, Martina, Price, Benjamin W., Hall, Andie C., White, Oliver W., Grignet, Virginie & Wilkins, Vicky, 2024, Two new sympatric species of the pirate spider genus Ero C.
