Wagneriana levii View in CoL Pinto-da-Rocha & Buckup, 1995: 159, figs 1–2, synon. nov. (male holotype from Usina Hidroelétrica Segredo, Barra do Capoteiro, Pinhão, Paraná, Brazil [25°41S, 51°39W], elevation [1000 m], 21.ii.1992, R. Pinto-da-Rocha leg., deposited in MHNCI, examined); World Spider Catalog, 2019.

Justification for synonymy: Male specimens showing the diagnostic palp morphology of W. levii View in CoL were collected together with females of the species W. taim View in CoL . Levi (1991) considered his association of male and female in W. taim View in CoL as uncertain. In our analysis, the male designated as W. taim View in CoL by Levi (1991) was phylogenetically placed far away from the W. taim View in CoL female ( Figs 15, 17), and consequently, it is considered here as Wagneriana View in CoL sp. nov. 5.

NOMINA DUBIA

The types of the following nominal Wagneriana species are immature. Therefore, we consider the specimens unidentifiable and the associated names as nomina dubia .
