Asemonea wagneri Wiśniewski & Wesołowska, 2024, sp. nov.

Asemonea wagneri sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 33A6CACF-142D-4FCE-9C6E-CC9C43605DC3 Figs 3–4 Diagnosis The male of this species is related to Asemonea virgea Wesołowska & Szűts, 2003, but differs from it by the shape of the palpal tibia, which has a strongly sclerotized outgrowth on the dorsum in A. wagneri sp. nov., while A. virgea has two smaller tubercles – compare Figs 3C, 4D with Wesołowska & Szűts (2003: fig. 7). Etymology This species is named after the German entomologist Thomas Wagner, who collected arthropods from the canopy in the Budongo Forest. Material examined Holotype UGANDA • ♂; Masindi distr., Budongo Forest; 1°45′ N, 31°25′ E; dry season; 19–30 Jun. 1995; T. Wagner leg.; ZFMK 3031. Paratype UGANDA • 1 ♂; same collection data as for holotype; ZFMK 2897. Specimen in poor condition. Description Male Shape of body typical for members of Asemonea. MEASUREMENTS. Cephalothorax length 1.5, width 1.0, height 0.7. Eye field length 0.5, anterior width 1.0, posterior width 0.6. Abdomen length 1.5, width 0.9. CARAPACE. Pear-shaped, longer than wide, moderately high with slightly elevated ocular area, eyes arranged in four rows, set on small tubercles. Carapace light brown, eyes surrounded by black area. ABDOMEN. Slender, narrower than carapace, yellow with grey stains, clothed in long brown hairs. LEGS. Long and thin, pale yellow, bearing light hairs. PALP. As in Figs 3–4, its femur with ventral furrow and large, cork-screw-shaped apophysis (Figs 3E, 4E). Retrolateral tibial apophysis big (Figs 3C, 4C), flat, strongly sclerotized bump on dorsal surface of tibia (Figs 3B, 4D), bulb rounded, spermophore meandering (Figs 3D, 4B). Female Unknown.
