Popis: Emmenomma obscurum Simon sp. reval. new rank Figs. 8; 10 A, D, G; 11. Emmenomma oculatum obscurum Simon, 1905: 14 (Two female syntypes from Monte Buenos Aires, F. Silvestri coll., deposited in MNHN AR 315, only one examined); Roth, 1967: 317 (Syn. with E. oculatum). Synonymy. Simon designated two syntypes for E. o. obscurum that he described as juveniles. Roth (1967) followed Simon���s designation without examining the specimens, since he mention that the specimens are ���probably deposited in the MNHN ���. During the visit to the MNHN the first author noticed that there were two vials labeled as E. o. obscurum, both with the number 315, but one of them was empty. The syntype found was examined and allowed us to confirm that it is a mature female not conspecific with Emmenomma oculatum according to its epigynal and vulval morphology. Therefore here we remove E. o. obscurum from synonymy with Emmenomma oculatum and raise it to species level. Note. The type locality listed by Simon, ���Monte Buenos Aires��� is most probably Cerro Buenos Aires (50 �� 24 'S, 72 �� 59 'W) in Santa Cruz, Argentina (M. Ram��rez, pers. comm.). Diagnosis. Emmenomma obscurum differs from E. oculatum and E. joshuabelli sp. nov. by the sub triangular shape of middle-field plate in the female epigynum (Fig. 8 A). Description. Male. Unknown. Female (holotype). Total length 6.32. Carapace piriform, length 3.04, width 1.96, height 0.84. Fovea long and shallow. Anterior eye row straight, posterior eye row recurved.

Coloration (Fig. 10 G): Carapace pale brown, uniform; endites, labium and sternum brown; chelicerae brown; legs brown with faint dark rings on the ventral face of the femur; abdomen yellowish brown with pale paired spots along the dorsal line, ventral weakly pigmented.

Specimens of E. joshuabelli where found in a vial that included all non-type specimens of Emmenomma collected during the Mission du Cap Horn at Orange bay. Etymology. The specific epithet is a noun in apposition honoring the violinist Joshua Bell. Diagnosis. Females of Emmenomma joshuabelli sp. nov. differ from E. oculatum and E. obscurum by the subrectangular epigynum middle-field (Fig. 9 D) with a sinuous posterior border of the MF (Figs. 9 D���F) and by the wide tooth of the LL (Fig. 9 D). Males of E. josuabelli sp. nov. differ from E. oculatum by the presence of a cymbial apophysis (Figs. 9 A���B), by the extra branch on DTA retrolaterally pointed and by the rounded TA (Figs. 9 A, C).
