"A new caponiid genus, Nyetnops, is described to contain a remarkable new species, N. guarani from Brazil. These spiders, which have a bizarrely elongated male palp, have the subsegmented tarsi typical of the Nopinae, but lack the additional leg modifications found in those taxa. They may therefore represent the sister group of the other described nopine genera"--P. [1].
