description: Stenoterommata peri sp. nov.
(Figs 41–43)
Types. Male holotype from Parque Municipal Lagoa do Peri, 20 m asl, 27°43'26.10"S, 48°30'29.07"W, Santa Catarina Island, Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil, vii–viii.2011, pitfall traps, A.L. Trivia & L. Malta coll. (IBSP 166236). Paratype: same data as holotype, 1 male (IBSP 166079).
Additional material examined. None.
Diagnosis. Males of S. peri sp. nov. resemble those of S. gugai sp. nov. by the long bulb keels (Figs 41–43), but can be distinguished by the absence of a developed retrolateral keel with triangular apical end and diagonal embolus tip (Figs 41–43).
Etymology. The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality, Parque Municipal da Lagoa do Peri, Santa Catarina Island, Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brazil.
