We describe a new species of giant crab spider of the genus Simon, 1880 collected in Lowland Evergreen rainforests at the Tiputini Biodiversity Station, Yasuni Biosphere Reserve, Amazonian Ecuador. This new species corresponds to the first record of the genus from Ecuador. Females of the new species of are similar to and . , by having the epigyne with a median septum diamond-shaped posteriorly. The new species is easily distinguished from and . by having relatively straight anterior lateral margins of the median septum. This study increases to 10 the number of described species of .
我们描述了一种西蒙属(Simon,1880)的巨型蟹蛛新物种,该物种采集于厄瓜多尔亚马逊地区亚苏尼生物圈保护区蒂普蒂尼生物多样性站的低地常绿雨林中。这一新物种是该属在厄瓜多尔的首次记录。该新物种的雌性与[此处可能缺失两个物种名]相似,其外雌器的中隔后部呈菱形。该新物种与[此处可能缺失两个物种名]易于区分,因其中隔的前侧缘相对较直。本研究使西蒙属已描述的物种数量增加到了10种。
