03BFF854C66BFFB0DAE8CCA0FA7AFBAF.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of Falconina share with those of Septentrinna Bonaldo, 2000 a well-developed cymbial retrolateral basal process that interacts with the retrolateral tibial apophysis (Figs 5 B, 20 B). They can be distinguished by the laminar tegular process positioned ventrally in relation to embolar insertion (tubular, positioned dorsally in relation to embolar insertion in Septentrinna) (Figs 5 A, C, 20 A, C) and by the presence of a unique embolar process, developed retrolaterally (Figs 5 C, 20 D). Females are distinguished from those of other Corinninae genera by the posterior vulvar plate, visible in ventral view as the posterior margin of the epigyne, forming a fold with the epigynal plate (Fig. 6 B); internally, the posterior vulvar plate presents two extensions that are merged with primary spermathecae (Figs 6 C – D).	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

03BFF854C66BFFB0DAE8CCA0FA7AFBAF.taxon	biology_ecology	Natural history. Some of the specimens examined were collected with pitfall traps, which suggests that species of Falconina may be ground-dwellers. Specimens of F. gracilis from Goiânia, Caldas Novas, and Mineiros (Parque Nacional das Emas), Goiás, Brazil were observed alive, allowing a few preliminary observations of the natural history. Females were more frequently seen than males. Specimens can be collected from around 18 to 22 hours, near colonies of leaf-cutter ants (Atta spp., Formicidae), and some individuals were observed entering and leaving ant nests without being attacked. Predation by F. gracilis on adults of Atta spp. was also recorded (Fig. 7).	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

03BFF854C66DFFA7DAE8CA08FA74FECA.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of F. gracilis resemble those of F. taita sp. nov. by the presence of a short and thick apical spur on the RTA ventral lobe (Fig. 5 B). They can be distinguished by the presence of a dorsal process of the ventral lobe of the RTA, a much smaller median lobe (robust in F. taita sp. nov.), and a dorsal lobe with multiple small, projected branches (Bonaldo 2000: figs 224 – 225) (without apical spiniform projections in F. taita sp. nov.). Females resemble those of F. albomaculosa by the posterior margin of epigynal plate with a median notch (Fig. 6 B), posterior vulvar plate slightly projected posteriorly, barely visible in ventral view and sub-squared in dorsal view, but can be differentiated by the margins of the epigynal plate and posterior vulvar plate divergent in ventral view (parallel in ventral view in F. albomaculosa); dorsally, posterior vulvar plate with recurved anterior margin (anterior margin procurved in F. albomaculosa) (Fig. 6 C); secondary spermathecae inserted subapically in relation to primary spermathecae (Fig. 6 D).	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

X. 1983 (MACN). Paratype: Sapecho: Alto Beni, [S 17.02524 °, W 65.58493 °, 643 m], H. Höfer leg., VIII. 1993, 1 ♀ (MCN 24074). Note. The male holotype and the female paratype were collected nearly 12 km apart and the sexes are only tentatively associated. From a strictly nomenclatural point of view, proposing this doubtful association is preferable to making available a possibly unnecessary specific name.	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

03BFF854C67AFFA1DAE8CFECFD1CFC66.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific name is a noun in apposition, directly derived from the word “ taita ”, which means “ father ” in Andean Indigenous languages like Quechua, Kichwa, and Aimara. It is of particular significance to the first author, who affectionately used it to refer to his late father. By incorporating “ taita ” into the species name, the first author pays a heartfelt tribute to his father while honoring the cultural and linguist heritage of the Andean Indigenous languages.	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

03BFF854C67AFFA1DAE8CFECFD1CFC66.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of F. taita sp. nov. share with F. gracilis a short and thick apical spur on the ventral lobe of the RTA (Figs 10 A, 11 A). It can be recognized by the laminar embolus, the unique median lobe of RTA, robust, longer than both ventral and dorsal lobes, and by the dorsal lobe devoid of projections (Figs 10 B, 11 B). Females can be easily recognized by the posterior margin of the epigynal plate without a pronounced median notch, gently curved laterally, and by a clearly visible copulatory opening (Fig. 10 C); internally, by the presence of remarkably long fertilization ducts (Figs 10 C, 11 D) and by the secondary spermathecae placed posteriorly in relation to the primary spermathecae (Figs 10 D, 11 D).	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

03BFF854C67CFFA1DAE8CA40FC0AF92C.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of Falconina melloi resemble those of Falconina albomaculosa by the small embolar process and large tegular process, which is as wide as the tegulum width (Fig. 12 B) Bonaldo, 2000 fig. 211), with pronounced lateral margins, inserted on a tegular depression (Fig. 12 A, Bonaldo 2000 fig. 212). They can be distinguished by the tegular process entire, with acute corners in the apical-lateral margins, apical spur of RTA filiform, nearly as long as the median lobe, and by the presence of a small dorsal lobe (Fig. 12 B). Females of Falconina melloi resemble those of F. adriki sp. nov. and F. taita sp. nov. in the absence of a pronounced median notch in the posterior margin of epigynal plate (Bonaldo, 2000 fig. 213) but can be recognized by the posterior margin of epigynal plate straight and by the posterior vulvar plate shorter, wider than long (Bonaldo: 2000 fig. 214).	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

Males are most similar to those of F. melloi by the small embolar process and large tegular process, which is as wide as the tegulum width, with pronounced lateral margins, inserted on a tegular depression. They can be distinguished by the bifid tegular process (Figs 13 A, 14 A), with truncated latero-apical margins, and by the RTA with a thicker apical spur on the ventral lobe and the absence of a dorsal lobe (Figs 13 B, 14 B). Females differ from other Falconina species with the posterior vulvar plate slightly projected posteriorly, barely visible in ventral view and sub-squared in dorsal view (namely F. andresi sp. nov., F. crassipalpis, F. brignolii sp. nov., and F. gracilis), by the margins of the epigynal plate and the posterior vulvar plate parallel in ventral view (Figs 13 C, F, 14 C); dorsally, by the posterior vulvar plate with a procurved anterior margin and by the secondary spermathecae inserted proximally in relation to primary spermathecae (Figs 13 D, 14 D).	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

03BFF854C670FFAEDAE8CA40FD2CFAA2.taxon	materials_examined	Note. This species was recorded from San Antonio de los Baños, Habana, Cuba by Alayón-García & Armas (2003). However, adult specimens from that country were not available for examination. Additional material examined (IBSP 236874, IBSP 233839, IBSP 169764, IBSP 237079, IBSP 236886, IBSP 236893, IBSP 236867, IBSP 233815) from different Cuban localities were identified as F. gracilis. The record of F. crassipalpis from Cuba is thus possibly a misidentification.	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.

03BFF854C670FFAEDAE8CA40FD2CFAA2.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Males of Falconina crassipalpis resemble those of F. adriki sp. nov. by the RTA composed of only two lobes, the dorsal one being absent, and by the laminar, sculptured tegular process. They differ by the presence of a dorsal process on the ventral lobe of the RTA and by the sub-rectangular tegular process, with a basal membranous sector (Figs 19 A – B, 20 A – B, 21 A – B). Females resemble those of F. andresi sp. nov., F. gracilis, and F. albomaculosa by the M-shaped median notch of the posterior margin of the epigynal plate (Figs 20 C, 21 C). They differ by the margins of posterior vulvar plate oval, as wide as the margins of the epigynal plate (in ventral view), and dorsally, by the posterior vulvar plate with the anterior margin projected laterally (Fig. 21 D).	en	García, Fabián, Bonaldo, Alexandre B.
