Etymology. The specific name refers to musician and multi-instrumentalist Michael Trent Reznor, founder of industrial music, leader of the Nine Inch Nails and affiliated to many other bands, in addition to his producer career.
Diagnosis. Males of Actinopus reznori differ from those of A. anselmoi (Fig. 171 A–C) by the more conspicuous PA; two keels visible on prolateral copulatory bulb and serrated area dorsally located on prolateral embolus (Fig. 168 A–C).
MALE (IBSP 9992): Total length 7.4; Carapace, long 3.9; wide 3.5. Carapace rounded. Anterior eye row slightly procurved, posterior row recurved (Fig. 166 B). With few short and weak bristles between AME-clypeus, between ALE–ALP, between posterior eyes-fovea and lateral eyes-edge of carapace. Sternum with eight sigilla fused medially, two distal sigilla more fused than others (Fig. 166 C). Rastellum protuberant, digitiform, hirsute, with a row of short spines apically (Fig. 166 E–F). Chelicerae with ten denticles along prolateral row of teeth. Prolateral row with five megateeth and one basal tooth. Retrolateral row with six megateeth and three denticles along three basal megateeth (Fig. 166 D). Patella and tibia III with distal crown of well-developed thorns, not interrupted in middle (Fig. 167 A–B). Patellae III and IV with spines on prolaterodorsal surface (Fig. 167 A, C). Tibia IV without spines on dorsal surface (Fig. 167 D). Ventral pseudoscopulae occupying 50% of tarsus I, 70% of II, 10% of metatarsi III and 100% of III and IV. Pseudoscopula of tarsi I and II with setae spaced, forming diffuse group of bristles; On tarsi III and IV, compact. Carapace, chelicerae, sternum, coxae, trochantera, femora, patellae, tibiae, metatarsi and tarsi yellowish brown; tibia of palp yellow; Abdomen pale gray (Fig. 166 A). Eyes: Diameters: PME 0.18, PLE 0.28, ALE 0.34, AME 0.15; MOQ: Length 0.84, front width 2.18, back width 1.96; Interdistances: PME–PME 1.09, PLE–PME 0.09, AME–AME 0.18, ALE–AME 0.62, ALE–PLE 0.34, AME–PME 0.40.
