Monoblemma unicum Gertsch, 1941 Figure 1. Monoblemma unica Gertsch, 1941: 10, figs. 9–12 (male holotype from Barro Colorado Island, Canal Zone, Panama, 9.VI.1938 E. G.

Monoblemma unicum Shear, 1978: 21, figs. 47–50 (correction of specific epithet according to the gender of the generic name); Nentwig, 1993: 97, figs. 48A–C. Diagnosis. This is the only species in the genus that has a single median eye on the edge of the clypeal declivity (Gertsch 1941: 8; Fig. 1A–B, D). Males can be further distinguished by the robust embolus with a canal along its full extension (Fig. 1F–I). Description. An excellent and highly detailed description was originally provided by Gertsch (1941). This description was successfully supplemented by Shear (1978). Distribution. Only known from Panama (Fig. 21).

Abstract

Monoblemma unicum Gertsch, 1941 Figure 1. Monoblemma unica Gertsch, 1941: 10, figs. 9–12 (male holotype from Barro Colorado Island, Canal Zone, Panama, 9.VI.1938 E. G. Williams, Jr. leg., deposited in AMNH, examined). Monoblemma unicum Shear, 1978: 21, figs. 47–50 (correction of specific epithet according to the gender of the generic name); Nentwig, 1993: 97, figs. 48A–C. Diagnosis. This is the only species in the genus that has a single median eye on the edge of the clypeal declivity (Gertsch 1941: 8; Fig. 1A–B, D). Males can be further distinguished by the robust embolus with a canal along its full extension (Fig. 1F–I). Description. An excellent and highly detailed description was originally provided by Gertsch (1941). This description was successfully supplemented by Shear (1978). Distribution.
