San Luis Potosi, Mexico, 25 November 1938 (A. M. and L. I. Davis), deposited 
in AMNH, examined. Roewer 1954:186. Vogel 1967:104. 
Male. Total length 3.82-4.55 mm; carapace 2.05-2.42 mm long 
and 1.53-1.87 mm wide (5 specimens). Carapace with yellow orange 
to orange brown median and submarginal areas, and with paired 
dark longitudinal bands flanking pale median area; lateral margins 
pale to dark. Sternum yellow orange. Chelicerae orange brown to 
brown; retromargin with 3 teeth. Legs orange yellow; femur I dark 
on basal half to two-thirds. Abdomen dull yellow brown mesally, 
darker laterally; venter pale. Terminal apophysis connected to mesal 
swelling by broad curve; median apophysis with marginal swelling 
broad, and with distal process weakly hooked (Fig. 10); conductor 
thin, fluted at tip, lacking knoblike process at tip (Fig. 13). 
Female. Total length 4.50 ±0.60 mm; carapace 2.17 ±0.19 mm 
long and 1.65 ±0.17 mm wide (10 specimens). General color and 
structure essentially as in male, but femur I not black. Median 
septum with posterior part essentially rectangular (Fig. 54); 
copulatory tubes stout, diverging (Fig. 55). 
Diagnosis. Males of P. desolatulata most resemble those of P. 
sagei, P. fastosa, and P. mayana, but can be distinguished by the 
broad marginal swelling and weak hook on the median apophysis 
and by the broad curve by which the terminal apophysis is 
connected to the mesal swelling. Females are not distinguishable 
anatomatically from those of sagei, fastosa, or mayana, but all of 
those examined were accompanied by males, or originated in 
localities from which no males of the other species were known. 
Range. San Luis Potosi and Tamaulipas, Mexico. 
Natural History. Males have been collected in March, June, and 
November, and females in March, April, September, and Novem- 
ber.
