Meioneta oculata Millidge, 1991 (Figures 11–14) Meioneta oculata Millidge, 1991: 103, figs. 413, 414 (Female holotype from Dantas, La Molina, Huanuco, Peru, 270m, May 30, 1987, D. Silva col., deposited in MUSM, examined); Platnick, 2012. Diagnosis. The male palp of Meioneta oculata Millidge, 1991 resembles that of M. noronhensis Rodrigues, Brescovit & Freitas, 2008 (Rodrigues et al. 2008: figs. 1–4) by the absence of a conical projection of the dorsal cymbial surface and presence of a single distal arm of the paracymbium, but differs by the basal projection of dorsal surface of cymbium and more highly developed mesobasal surface (Figs. 11, 13), more distally developed and ventrally elongated lamella characteristica (Figs. 11, 12) and absence of a retrolateral tibial apophysis (Fig. 11).
