Abstract

A new species of the lyrate curtain-web spider genus Trechona C. L. Koch, 1850, Trechona minuana sp. nov., is described, based on males and females from Santa Catarina state, South Brazil. It is the first species of the genus from this Brazilian region. Additionally, we describe for the first time the female of Trechona excursora Pedroso, Miranda & Baptista, 2019 based on specimens from its type localities.
