WAGNERIANA GRANDICORNIS MELLO-LEITÃO, 1935
Wagneriana grandicornis Mello-Leitão, 1935: 96 , fig. 6 (immature holotype from Pesqueira, Pernambuco, Brazil, [8°21′S, 36°44′W], R. Ihering leg., deposited in MNRJ 41850, examined); Levi 1991: 386, figs 60–66; World Spider Catalog, 2019.
Remarks: Levi (1991) considered the size of the first pair of abdominal tubercles as a diagnostic character for W. grandicornis . Nevertheless, the size and shape of abdominal tubercles across Wagneriana species are extremely variable and, as such, not reliable for delineation (see Supporting Information, Appendix S1, Fig. 39). For example, we observed dorsally projected anterior tubercles as those characteristic of the W. grandicornis holotype in several specimens of W. atuna , W. dimastophora and W. vegas . The female specimen collected in Costa Rica tentatively identified as W. grandicornis by Levi (1991) was examined (MCZ139867) and identified as W. atuna .
