174E87B6FFB4B56898D6F952FE1640FE.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The males of Scytodes brignolii n. sp. resemble those of S. pintodarochai n. sp. by the slender distal area of the male palp, partially covering the retrolateral – ventral sclerotized process (Figs. 107 – 109; 119 – 121). They are distinguished by the shorter distal area and sclerotized process set closer to each other (Figs 107 – 109). The females are distinguished from those of the remaining Neotropical Scytodes by the presence of a pair of very small hyaline pockets set close together and two pairs of spermathecae, the anterior ones closer to each other and the posterior pointing outwards (Fig. 111).	en	Rheims, Cristina A., Brescovit, Antonio D.
