Key Points

  • Three new species of cybaeodamus have been identified in Brazil, expanding the genus's diversity.
  • The new species, including C. ampullatus, C. spinosissimus, and C. malkini, are illustrated and mapped.
  • Detailed descriptions include morphological characters, which are crucial for recognizing these spider species.
  • The research emphasizes the importance of biodiversity and accurate species classification in arachnology.

Abstract

Three new Brazilian species of the zodariid genus Cybaeodamus Mello-Leitão, 1938 are described: C. ampullatus sp. nov. (♂♀), C. spinosissimus sp. nov. (♂) and C. malkini sp. nov. (♂). Descriptions are accompanied with high-quality illustrations and microphotographs. An updated distribution map and a key to all the species in the genus are presented. The morphological diagnostic characters of the genus are discussed.
