From the Greek Τῑτάν (one of the titans, divine beings descending from the primordial deities) + leptes (truncation of generic name Gonyleptes), referring to the very large size of its species. Gender masculine.</p> <p>Type species. Titanoleptes hyperion sp. nov.</p> <p>Included species. Titanoleptes calcar (Roewer, 1913), Titanoleptes cupidensis (Soares &amp; Soares, 1946), Titanoleptes eros sp. nov. and Titanoleptes hyperion sp. nov.</p> <p>Diagnosis. Coxa IV of male without retrolateral apical apophysis (Fig. 16c), except in T. cupidensis (Fig. 20a). Trochanter IV of male armed with a strong, retrolateral, apical apophysis (Figs. 21a, c). Patella and tibia IV covered with yellow acuminate tubercles (Figs. 20d, 24b). Femur IV of male either substraight (Fig. 19a) or strongly curved to the midline on basal 1/ 4 in dorsal view (Figs. 17a, c). Tibia IV armed with rows of acuminate tubercles (Figs. 20d, 24b). VP of penis with ear-flaps small, triangular, ectal vertex connected but not fused with flange. Flabellum quadrangular, as a stylized shell, proximal sides gently arched, non-serrate, distal half extremely reduced, with distal sides coalesced into one, arched and deeply serrate (Fig. 22e).</p> <p>Distribution (Figs 14–15). Southern Bahia State and Espírito Santo State. All four species of Titanoleptes occur in the WWF ecoregion NT0103 (Bahia coastal forests) and two subsets of two species each are distributed on opposite margins of the Doce River.</p> <p>Internal and external relationships of the four species of Titanoleptes. At a first glance, one could easily identify two forms in Titanoleptes gen. nov.: (1) T. eros sp. nov. and T. cupidensis are gracile and have a median apophysis on free tergite III in both sexes, substraight femur IV, and naked glans; (2) T. hyperion sp. nov. and T. calcar are robust and lack an apophysis on free tergite III of males, have a heavily curved femur IV, and have a unique scutum covering the glans. The parapatrid pattern of these two pairs— T. eros + T. cupidensis and T. hyperion + T. calcar are found on opposite margins of the Doce River (Figs. 13–14)—is highly suggestive of a sister relationship between each of the members of these pairs, regardless of whether the pairs themselves form a more inclusive clade or not. This hypothesis, though, is not corroborated by any of the analyses. The cladistic analysis of Kury et al. (2022) explored different parameters to assess the arrangement of the four Titanoleptes in the phylogeny of Sodreaninae. The favored analysis using the setk script (with implied weights and K value ca. 12) resolved Titanoleptes as a sister clade of Friburgoia / Urodiabunus, with an internal branching sequence of T. eros, T. cupidensis, and then T. hyperion + T. calcar. IE settings of K = 1 and 5, plus equal weights, yielded the same result. However, Bayesian inference did not recover Titanoleptes at all, finding only the clade T. hyperion + T. calcar and then recovering T. eros and T. cupidensis in a trichotomy with the rest of the Sodreaninae. We have decided not to arrange the four species of Titanoleptes into two genera, despite the weak support for their monophyly.</p> <p>Key to the species of Titanoleptes</p> <p>1.

Area I long, divided into broadly joined halves. Area II projected into area I. Area III strongly arched frontwards and moderately encased into area II. Carapace smooth and unarmed, area I with a transverse row of five granules on each side, area II with a similar row of 10 granules, without any especially developed in the middle. Areas III-IV with two rows of a few granules plus a paramedian pair of larger rounded capitate tubercles, these forming a trapezoid with posterior tubercles much smaller than anterior ones, and more widely spaced. Area V (posterior border of scutum) with a transverse row of granules. Lateral margins of scutum with a row of tubercles stretching from mid-carapace to area V, and which increase in size toward the posterior. Each free tergite with a row of larger granules, free tergite III with an immense spiniform apophysis. Posterior border of dorsal scutum with arched concavity. Venter. Cx I free, other connected by tubercular bridges. Cx IV much larger than the others combined, without any ventro-apical tubercle. Stigmatic area posterior border deeply concave.

All legs slender, only leg IV with significant armature. Dorsal apophyses of Cx I and II: Cx I anterior single, triangular erect, posterior larger, conical, directed backwards. Cx II anterior single, triangular erect, posterior flat triangular with small accessory tubercle. Tr IV with prodorsal median conical apophysis, which connects with apophysis of Cx IV and retrolateral distal conical apophysis of the same size. Otherwise only with a few small and scattered ventral tubercles. Legs I to III entirely unarmed. Fe I–II straight, III slightly arched. Fe IV: elongate, curved to the median line at 1/2 length; neither curved to ventral nor to dorsal. Proventral: row of numerous, small, acuminate tubercles all along the femur length. Retroventral: row of numerous, small, acuminate tubercles + unarmed mid-region + 6 larger tubercles distally. Retrodorsal: row of tubercles, being the basalmost and distalmost ones larger, with RD9 the largest. Dorsal: row of small tubercles, of which Do6 to Do8 more outstanding.

VP trapezoid, and distal border with a moderately deep parabolic cleft. Field of type 1 microsetae occupying most of VP except distal corners and not extending dorsally into podium but rather to latero-basal lobe. Basal lobe as a large, rounded polygon projecting dorsally from VP. Macrosetae (MS) A and B moderately long, forming an arch on latero-basal lobe, B only slightly smaller than A1–A3. MS C1–C3 elongate, straight basally, but distally helical. MS D1 minute, midway between C and A, E1–E2 short, situated on flange. Flabellum diamond-shaped, with ventral half outline gently serrated. Glans sac short, multi-folded, forming apically a solea projected as a short and blunt dorsal process. Stylus stalk arising from ventralmost part of glans sac; stylus inserted on stalk in candelabrum-mode. Stylus distally provided with distal denticles, which more apically form a large spiny protuberance.</p> <p>Female (MNRJ 7077). The female is essentially similar to male in build, appendages, and armature of dorsal scutum. Main differences are in the apophysis of free tergite III and in the armature of leg IV, which are much reduced. Tarsal counts: 6(3)/9(3)/7/8.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/44270927FFBD575F6C8EFAEDFDD09DBC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

Outline of DS gamma pyriform in dorsal view, quite flattened, so that Cx IV is much thicker than scutum in lateral view. Mesotergum divided into four areas, none entirely separated, of which areas III and IV are widely fused to each other. Posterior border of DS with trapezoid concavity. Carapace mid-area pentagonal, with narrow and low ocularium. Ocularium armed with a pair of paramedian small spherical tubercles. Frontal hump low, armed with a pair of small granules. Mesotergum divided into 4 scutal areas, although all of them show fusion on the sides due to obliteration of grooves. Areas III and IV moreover are extensively fused to each other. Area I long, divided into halves, broadly joined. Area II projected a little into area I. Area III strongly arched frontwards and only moderately encased into area II. Carapace smooth and unarmed, area I with a transverse row of three granules on each side; area II with a similar row of four granules, without any especially developed pair in the middle. Areas III-IV with a row of a few granules plus a paramedian pair of larger, rounded, capitate tubercles, forming a transversal line on area IV. Area V with a transverse row of a few granules. Lateral margins of scutum with a row of minute tubercles at areas I to IV. Each free tergite with a row of minute granules, free tergites I–III unarmed. Posterior border of dorsal scutum with elongate trapezoid concavity. Two ozopores, first slit-like, second rounded.</p> <p>Venter.

Free tergites each with transverse row of granules. Stigmatic area with very long axis and large, elliptical slanted stigmata.</p> <p>Pedipalps. Moderately elongate, shorter than body. Tr with thin neck, 1 + 3 setiferous tubercles dorsal and ventral. Fe with a row of three extremely weak ventral setiferous tubercles and much stronger meso-distal spine. Pa curved, unarmed. Ti and Ta flattened ventrally. Spination of Ti: mesal IiIi, ectal IiIi (last two geminated). Spination of Ta: mesal IiIi, ectal IiIi.</p> <p>Legs. All legs slender, only leg IV with considerable armature. Fe I–II straight, III–IV arched. Femur III with multiple rows of small acuminate tubercles. Tr IV with prodorsal, median, conical apophysis which connects with apophysis of Cx IV and immense, retrolateral, distal, conical apophysis. Fe IV: elongate, curved to the middle at 1/3 length; uniformly curved to dorsal. Proventral: row of numerous, small, acuminate tubercles all along the femur length. Retroventral: row of numerous, small, acuminate tubercles, plus four larger tubercles distally. Retrodorsal: only four spines, with RD5 and RD10 the largest. Dorsal: row of small tubercles, with the five distalmost much larger. Prodorsal: row of numerous small acuminate tubercles all along the femur length. Pa IV with many rows of tubercles, Ti IV as well, but tubercles are coarser. Mt IV smooth, thin and slender. Tarsal counts: 6(3)-6(3)/10(3)- 10(3)/7-7/10-10.</p> <p>Color (in 75% ethanol): Body and appendages background Grayish Brown (61), lighter on scutum and tergites. Leg IV considerably darker starting at apical portion of Cx. Venter Light Brown (57), with unobtrusive, lighter, honeycombed reticulation. In vivo it is considerably darker, with lighter granules more contrasting. Arthrodial membrane between Cx/Tr IV Very Light Blue (180); between free tergites Dark Grayish Blue (187).</p> <p>Male genitalia (Figs. 29a–e). VP roughly T-shaped, with basal lobes narrow, and distal border with a wide parabolic cleft. Large latero-distal flange of VP projected, forming a pair of triangular ears. Field of type 1 microsetae occupying most of VP with mid-ventral part extending into podium. Basal lobe as a large square projecting dorsally from VP. Macrosetae (MS) A and B well-developed, forming an arch on latero-basal lobe, B the same size as A1–A3. MS C1–C3 elongate, straight basally, but helical distally. MS D1 very small, inserted at 1/3 of the distance between C and A/B, E1–E2 small, on flange. Flabellum subtriangular, with ventral half outline deeply serrated. Glans sac organized as an elaborate calyx, surrounding most of the stylus.</p> <p>Female (MNRJ 9104). The female is essentially similar to male in color, build, appendages, and armature of dorsal scutum. Main differences are in the weak development and reduced armature of leg IV and the absence of yellow tubercles on the patellae and tibiae.
