Abstract

A new species of Loxosceles of the laeta species-group, L. vicentei sp. nov., found in Chile is described and illustrated. The male of this species can be distinguished from that of other species by having a long and straight embolus with a truncated tip. The female is distinguished by the spermatheca with a large base and two slender, curved receptacles in both sides.
