[6] The Metacynorta

Pickard-Cambridge (1904) had created the new genus Metacynorta Pickard-Cambridge, 1904 for the new species Metacynorta gracilipes Pickard-Cambridge, 1904 from Guatemala, and Roewer (1912) placed Gonyleptes ornatus Say, 1821 in Metacynorta . Mary Elizabeth Walker (1928), in her study of Ohio harvestmen, described the new species Metacynorta denticus Walker, 1928 from Clear Creek. She compared M. denticus to M. ornata, saying that it: “differs from it [ M. ornata] in a sufficient number of characters to permit describing it as a new species.” However, she did not care to elaborate on those characters.
