 Berlandiella querencia Lise & Silva, 2011: 368, figs 1, 100–111 (holotype from Querência, Mato Grosso, Brazil, deposited in MPEG 17571; examined).   
 Diagnosis. The male of B. querencia differs from the other species of the genus by having a sinuous CP, directed to the apex of the RTA (Figs 31, 33), which is robust, excavated, and with a straight apex (Figs 31, 33).   
Description. Male (MPEG.ARA 34477). Carapace slightly longer than wide, wider on the level of legs III, narrowed in front, with many sockets of bristles (Figs 17–22), similar to female; median region yellow with wide brown bands on each side, formed by a tangle of dark spots. Clypeus brown, vertical, with many sockets of bristles. Chelicerae yellow, with two teeth on the promargin of the fang furrow, with a large dark brown spot on the anterior face. Labium brown with rounded apex, reaching almost the middle of the endites. Endites pale yellow with some brown spots, excavated diagonally. Sternum pale yellow with some circular brown spots on its lateral margins. Legs covered by various types of setae with abundant macrosetae on tibiae and metatarsi. Left tibia I with 2–2–2–2–1 ventral macrosetae and left metatarsi I with 2–2–0 ventral macrosetae; right tibia I with 2–2–2–2 ventral macrosetae and right metatarsus I with 2–2–0 ventral macrosetae. Left tibia II with 2–2–2–2 ventral macrosetae and left metatarsus II with 2–2–0 ventral macrosetae. Tarsi and metatarsi with dense scopula (Figs 35, 37, 39). Long and slender trichobothria in tarsus and metatarsus with distal and proximal plate limit well differentiated; the distal margin of the trichobothrial hood is well defined; hood entire, differentiated with transverse ridges; alveolus notched; distal plate smooth, slightly elevated. Femura, patellae, tibiae and metatarsi I-IV yellow shaded with brown; tarsi yellow. Tarsal claw pectinate and conspicuous with claw apex tooth curved and seven short and robust teeth. Abdomen oval, narrower on the posterior margin, excavated on the anterior margin; tegument yellow with many setae curved backwards, the dorsum covered by a wide brown spot with two longitudinal yellow bands around the heart mark; sides with a brown longitudinal stripe and the venter with small brown spots. Palpal cymbium dark yellow covered by many setae, including scopula in the apex, cymbial process present; covered by many setae, including scopula in the apex; ellipsoid and robust bulb, with small triangular process near embolus and semi-translucent lamella in the retrolateral apical portion; embolus short, sharp and straight; RTA semi-translucent, curved and elongated.
