Justification of the transfer. O. P.- Cambridge (1869) described M. culta comb. nov. from Sri Lanka, who placed this species in the genus Tetragnatha. Gravely (1921) transferred this species to the genus Leucauge and was later transferred to the genus Anopas Archer, 1951. Currently the species is included in the genus Tylorida as the genus Tylorida was considered a senior synonym of Anopas (Chrysanthus 1975). In his original description, O. P.- Cambridge (1869) pointed out the presence of a median spur on the anterior surface of the male chelicerae of this species. In his redescription, Gravely (1921) also noted the presence of cheliceral spur of the male spider. The descriptions of both O. P.-Cambridge and Gravely indicated the presence of a median spur on the anterior surface of the chelicerae of the male spider, which is the characteristic feature of adult male spiders belonging to the genus Mesida (Barrion and Listinger 1995; Álvarez-Padilla and Hormiga 2011). From this, it is clear that this species is misplaced within Tylorida and thus should be transferred to the genus Mesida.

Atrichobrunettia minuta Bravo, 2006: 22 –23, figs. 34–40
Diagnosis. Frontal scar patch undivided (Bravo, 2006: fig. 34). Radial fork distal to medial fork (Fig. 1). The distance AB between the hypandrium and the gonocoxal apodeme is 1.5x the length of the paramere (Fig. 2). Apex of sternite 10 without lateral lobes (Fig. 3).
Specimens included in A. minuta: holotype male. The 2 paratypes included by Bravo (2006) in A. minuta were assigned to a new species described below.
Material examined. Holotype male, BRAZIL, Bahia, Sauípe (12o 22’S 37o 56’W), 14.XI.2004, F. Bravo col.
Comments. The type material of A. minuta described by Bravo (2006) included 3 specimens, the holotype from Bahia State and two paratypes from Amazonas State. The discovery of a new specimen similar to A. minuta from Amazonas State (INPA collection) allowed a more accurate evaluation of the characteristics of these 4 specimens. Two species were recognized between these 4 specimens: A. minuta for the specimen of Bahia State and a new species (described below) for the three specimens from Amazonas State. The figures of A. minuta described by Bravo (2006) were based on the holotype. See others commentaries in the next new species.
Distribution. Brazil, Bahia (Sauípe).

description: Atrichobrunettia (Pachybrunettia) trilobata Bravo, sp. nov.
(Figs. 4–12)
Type material. BRAZIL, Amazonas, Silvis (Saraça), mata virgem, holotype male, 29.V.1997 (INPA); 2 paratypes male, same locality, perturbed area, 30.VI.1997, without collector’s name (1 paratype INPA, 1 paratype MZUEFS).
Etymology. trilobata refers to the three apical lobes of the sternite 10.
Diagnosis. Frontal scar patch divided medially (Fig. 4). Radial fork distal to medial fork (Fig. 9). The distance AB between the hypandrium and the gonocoxal apodeme is 2.0x the length of the paramere (Fig. 12). Apex of sternite 10 with lateral lobes (Fig. 11).
Description. Male. Frontal scar patch divided medially (Fig. 4); scape 1.5x the length of the pedicel (Fig. 5); 1st flagellomere (Fig. 6) less rounded than the following flagellomeres (Fig. 7); ascoids missing. Maxillary palpi incomplete, only the 1st and 2nd being present (Fig. 8). Wing with short Sc; radial fork apical to medial fork (Fig. 9). Male terminalia (Figs. 10, 11, 12): the distance AB between the hypandrium and the gonocoxal apodeme is 2.0x the length of the paramere; cerci with apical tenacula many of them lost in the specimens; apex of tenacula broken; epandrium sub-rectangular with small foramen; apex of sternite 10 with two lateral lobes.
Comments. The two paratypes of A. trilobata sp. nov. were previously included in the species A. minuta by Bravo (2006). This confusion was originated because these two paratypes, from the Amazonas State, are very clear and some characters were erroneously interpreted. However, the discovery of a new and better preserved specimen from the same locality in Amazonas State permitted a more detailed analysis. In the present paper, the three specimens from Amazonas State are included in a new species of Atrichobrunettia, A. trilobata. The wing venation and the male terminalia of A. minuta and A. trilobata are very similar; however, 3 differences stand out between these 2 species: 1) the frontal scar patch is undivided in A. minuta and divided in A. trilobata sp. nov.; 2) the apex of sternite 10 of A. minuta do not have lateral lobes, while A. trilobata sp. nov. has two big lateral lobes; 3) the foramen of epandrium of A. minuta is larger than that of A. trilobata sp. nov.
Distribution. Brazil, Amazonas (Silves).

description: Atrichobrunettia (Pachybrunettia) triangularis Bravo, sp. nov.
(Figs. 13–20)
Type material. BRAZIL, Pará, Santarém, Ch.N.S. Nazaré, Km 13, holotype male, 17.XI.1998, Col. RF / RAN/FLS (INPA); 4 paratypes male, same locality, date and collector as holotype (2 paratypes, INPA; 2 paratypes, MZUEFS).
Etymology. triangularis refers to the format of the apex of sternite 10.
Diagnosis. Frontal scar patch undivided (Fig. 13). Medial fork distal to radial fork (Fig. 16). The distance AB between the hypandrium and the gonocoxal apodeme is 0.5x–0.7x the length of the paramere (Fig. 2). Apex of sternite 10 triangular without lateral lobes (Fig. 3).
Description. Male. Frontal scar patch undivided (Fig. 13). Scape 1.1x the length of the pedicel (Fig. 14); 1st flagellomere less rounded than the next flagellomeres (Fig. 14); ascoids missing. Palpus formula = 1.3:3.5:3.8:4.8 (Fig. 15). Wing with short Sc; medial fork apical to radial fork (Fig. 16). Male terminalia (Figs. 17, 18, 19, 20): the distance AB between the hypandrium and the gonocoxal apodeme is 0.5x–0.7x the length of the paramere; cerci with apical tenacula; tenacula with short stems and bell-shaped tips many of them lost in the specimens; epandrium sub-rectangular with large foramen; apex of sternite 10 triangular without lateral lobes.
Comments. The narrow sclerite, well sclerotized, that link the base of aedeagus to the apex of the gonocoxal apodeme in A. trilobata sp. nov. can be very short, as observed in the holotype, or long, as observed in all the paratypes. A. trilobata sp. nov. can be differentiated from the others two species of Atrichobrunettia (Pachybrunettia) by the relative position of M fork, that is apical to R fork, and by the length of the narrow sclerite, that is short in A. triangularis sp. nov. and larger in A. minuta and A. trilobata sp. nov. Other difference between the three species is the format of the apex of sternite 10, triangular in A. triangularis sp. nov., with two lateral lobes in A. trilobata sp. nov. and T inverted shape in A. minuta.
Distribution. Brazil, Pará (Santarém).

[18]’94”; “OA Johannsen/ Lot 85/ Sub. 1147/ Cornell U.”; “ALLOTYPE/ Cornell U./ No. 2993”; “ALLOTYPE Dixa similis Johannsen ” (CUIC).
Remarks. In 1954, Alice Dietrich, Cornell University Insect Museum, accessioned holotype #2992 (Figs 3–5), the pinned “ holotype ” male of Dixa modesta (J. Liebherr, pers. comm.). This male, clearly having a striped scutum (Figs 3–4), corresponds to the adult successfully reared by Johannsen (1903) from a larva (and pupa, the exuviae of both included in the syntype series) partly serving as the basis for Johannsen ′s original description. Examination of the lectotype and additional material studied by Johannsen confirmed the presence of a mixed series. Examination of the primary types of D. modesta and D. similis, including the badly faded terminalia of the former, confirmed they are of the same nominal species. Therefore, D. similis falls as an objective junior synonym of D. modesta. This species will be re-described in a future study.
Examination of Johannsen’s material, in addition to the lectotype, revealed one male (actually only partial terminalia in glycerin) each of D. ubiquita sp. nov. from Ithaca, NY and Black Mtn, NC, one male of Dixa brevis (terminalia in glycerin), and one larva from Cascadilla Creek near Ithaca. Confirmation of D. ubiquita sp. nov. from the Ithaca area fits nicely with the hypothesized, but unidentified, collection locality, Fall Creek (Flat Rock), a karst stream now largely contained within a Cornell Plantations Natural Area (Jason Dombroskie, pers. comm.). The larva from Cascadilla Creek could be either D. ubiquita sp. nov. or D. vockerothi sp. nov. based upon photographs of the stream, which has numerous staircase falls within a gorge.
