Body length between 39−76 mm. Gonopod: composed of a basal portion (gonocoxae), containing lateral macrosetae; and a distal portion (telopod) divided into two well-developed narrow branches: the external branch (solenomere) presented as a single branch containing a variable-position cingulum and an evident spermatic groove, and the internal branch (prefemoral process) varying in size and format according to genera.</p> <p>Distribution. The tribe is distributed in Brazil in the northern region (states of Pará and Tocantins), central-west region (states of Goiás, Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul) and southeast (state of São Paulo).</p> <p>Composition.

Arthrosolaenomeris planaltensis Schubart, 1960.</p> <p>Diagnosis. Males of Abiliodesmus n.gen. differ from those of other Arthrosolaenomeridini genera by the combination of the following characters: slight dorsal lobe on leg prefemur (Figs 31C–D); lateral macrosetae dispersed on the gonocoxae, in mesal view (Fig. 32F); cingulum with a basal position (Fig. 20F); and presence of a membranous lateral flap at the apex of the solenomere (Fig. 22D) (absent in Abiliodesmus mapinguari n. sp.).</p> <p>Description. General characters: Body length between 34.63 mm (A. defensor comb. nov.) and 69.15 mm (A. mapinguari n. sp.).

Folcloredesmus thomasi n. sp.</p> <p>Diagnosis. Males of Folcloredesmus n. gen. differ from those of other Arthrosolaenomeridini genera by the combination of the following characters: paranota sub-triangular (Fig. 26B); slight dorsal lobe on leg prefemur; presence of a spiniform process in gonocoxae (Figs 26D, 32C).</p> <p>Description. General characters: Coloration (specimen long preserved in 70% ethanol) ocher with the paranota tip slightly whitish. Gnathochilarium: lingual plate covered by several setae; mentum only centrally covered by setae, with smooth edges and stipes completely covered by sparse setae. Body rings: cuticle slightly rough; alignment of paranota in posterior view straight. Sternite of the fourth segment with a pair of projections, sternite of the fifth segment with two pairs of projections covered with setae and sternite of sixth body ring with two pairs of ventral projections; seventh body ring with a pair of projections and post-gonopodal sternites with two pairs of rounded ventral projections (Fig. 30D). Paranota form: sub-triangular (Fig. 26B). Legs: slight dorsal lobe, a ventroapical projection in the prefemur of the anterior legs (Fig. 31E), and presence of granules in the tibia and tarsus; thin setae on the ventral part of the podomeres in the anterior legs (Fig. 31F).</p> <p>Male characters: Gonopod aperture on seventh body ring with the posterior margin excavated, concave and transverse sulci; without projections. Gonopods: gonocoxae equivalent to about half the length of the telopodite, cylindrical, with a spiniform process (Fig. 26D). Prefemoral process: elongate and thin (Fig. 26D) and with indentations in the apical portion, in ectal view (Fig. 34B). Cingulum in medial position (Fig. 26F). Solenomere also long and thin with apex slightly curved (Figs 26D–F).</p> <p>Female characters: Vulvae: oval-shaped, sub-triangular in lateral view.</p> <p>Distribution. State of Mato Grosso (Fig. 28).</p> <p>Etymology. The genus name comes from the Portuguese word for “Folclore” (culture shared by a particular group of people, as the tales characters used as species epithet in this paper) with the combining stem “-desmus”, commonly used in generic names in Polydesmida.</p> <p>Composition. One species: Folcloredesmus thomasi n. sp.</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/052487CFFFE1E50F46C6B36C8E2CFEB6	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
