However, females of K. septata sp. nov. can be recognized by the large median septum on the epigynal plate and by the deep excavations where the elliptical copulatory openings are located (Figs 16C, E, 22C). The male is similar to that of S. quadrata sp. nov. by the rounded tegulum and to K. pentacantha by the stout and conical RTA, however, can be distinguished from these two species by its shorter, thicker and more curved embolus (Figs 17C, E, 20A). Differently from K. pentacantha, in males of K. septata sp. nov. the RTA presents a terminal curvature that makes this apophysis points vertically rather to the backwards of the cymbium (Figs 17D, F, 20A). Etymology The name is a reference to the remarkable median septum on the epigynal plate of females. Material examined Holotype BRAZIL &#x2022; &amp;female;; Minas Gerais, Vale Verde, Parque Nacional do Capara&#xF3;; 20&#xB0;25&#x2032;5.9&#x2033; S, 41&#xB0;50&#x2032;48.7&#x2033; W; 24&#x2013;30 Nov. 2014; B.T.

Anterior row eye strongly recurved and posterior slightly procurved (Fig. 16B); ALE slightly larger than AME; carapace predominantly dark-yellow with cephalic region dark-brown; clypeus yellow; sternum slightly longer than wide, dark-brown with a central yellow stain; labium truncated and totally dark-brown; chelicerae dark-yellow LEGS. Anterior legs (I and II) dark-yellow with dark taints randomly distributed; posterior legs (III and IV) predominantly yellow. OPISTHOSOMA. Rough surfaced, predominantly dark-yellow, with dark-brown stains bypassing the upperlateral opisthosomal projections and the median posterior one; a central white macula can be observed on the dorsum (Fig. 16A); spermathecae smooth surfaced and kidney-shaped (Fig. 16D, F).

Male (paratype, UFMG 22431) PROSOMA. Reddish-brown with lighter median area and clypeus (Fig. 17A&#x2013;B). LEGS. Anterior legs (I and II) reddish-brown with macrosetae sockets yellowish-white; posterior femora (III and IV) bicolor, yellow on their proximal half and reddish-brown on its distal part. OPISTHOSOMA. Predominantly brown with black punctuations; opisthosomal projections are reddish and bear white maculae on its basis; a dorsal white guanine spot can be also observed on the median region of the dorsum (Fig. 17A).

Distribution Brazil (Esp&#xED;rito Santo and Minas Gerais) (Fig. 18). Additional taxonomic acts The type material of all other Neotropical species hitherto assigned to Stephanopis was examined. The following species do not share the diagnostic characters proposed for Kryptochroma gen. nov., therefore . they are being considered as nomina dubia or transferred to other genera recently revised by Teixeira et al. (2014), Silva-Moreira &amp; Machado (2016) and Machado et al.
