Diagnosis

Males of Hatitia canchaque resemble those of H. oxapampa sp. nov. and H. machiguenga sp. nov. by the projected tegulum ( Figs 11D–H , 12C–H , 13C–H ) but differ by the rounded projection of the tegulum and the long triangular retrolateral tibial apophysis ( Fig. 11D–H ). Females differ from the others by the epigynal plate with lateral lobes curved, forming an arc, and a rounded hood in the median region of the epigynum ( Fig. 11I–J ).
