Abstract | tThe modestly diverse order Amblypygi Thorell, 1883 includes five families, of which CharinidaeQuintero, 1986 is the most diverse and with the widest geographical distribution. The family currentlycomprises three genera, Catageus Thorell, 1889, Charinus Simon, 1892 and Sarax Simon, 1892, the firstknown by one species from a single locality in Myanmar, the second with currently 74 species globallydistributed, and the last with 17 species present in Southeast Asia and India. In this paper we describeand illustrate a new genus to accommodate the species Sarax davidovi Fage, 1946 based on uniquecharacters. Weygoldtia gen. nov. (Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia) is supported by two synapomorphies:the presence of a straight crest anterior to the lateral eyes and the longitudinal orientation of the rodsensilla on tarsus of leg I. The new genus can be distinguished from Charinus and Sarax by the number oftrichobothria on distitibia IV and the presence of one or two setae on the base of the cleaning organ onpedipalp tarsus. The enigmatic species Catageus pusillus Thorell, 1889 (the single species in the genus) ishere synonymized with Stygophrynus cavernicola (Thorell, 1889) (family Charontidae Simon, 1892) anda neotype is designated. As Stygophrynus cavernicola is the type species of the genus, the synonymizationof the two species results in the synonymy of the genera. Following the principle of priority, Catageusis maintained and all nine species of Stygophrynus Kraepelin, 1895 now have the following newcombination: Catageus berkeleyi (Gravely, 1915), comb. nov., C. brevispina (Weygoldt, 2002), comb. nov.,C. cavernicola, comb.nov., C. cerberus (Simon, 1901), comb. nov., C. dammermani (Roewer, 1928), comb.nov., C. longispina (Gravely, 1915), comb. nov., C. moultoni (Gravely, 1915), comb. nov., C. orientalis (Seiterand Wolf, 2017), comb. nov. and C. sunda (Rahmadi and Harvey, 2008), comb. nov. | pt_BR |
