Faustino (INPA); Pará: ♂ 2♀ Canta Galo, Óbidos, Set–1959, Coll. Dirings (MCNZ); ♀ Santarém, 6–IV–56, Elias & Roppa col., D. Z. 9/959 (MNRJ); ♀ Santarém, Ace. Nº2966 (CMNH).
Measurements. total length: 15.9–18.9; head length: 2.0–2.4; head width: 3.3–3.8; pronotal width: 10.0–11.9; abdominal width: 8.8–10.6; length of antennal segments. I: 0.9–1.1; II: 1.9–2.3; III: 1.2–1.6; IV: 4.4–5.3; V: 4.4–5.3; interocular distance: 1.4–1.7; scutellum length: 7.3–8.9; scutellum width: 5.6–6.7; pronotal length: 3.3–3.8.
Diagnosis. Anterolateral margin of pronotum with complete solid black stripe. Cicatrices with dark brown punctures delimiting anterior sulci (Fig. 18E). Anterolateral margin with some black punctures. Male (Fig. 3 A–C). Pygophore with dorsal rim shallowly excavated (Fig. 3A). Superior process of genital cup elongate, narrow, with a median ventral triangular lobe; adjacent to dorsal rim (Fig. 3B). Paramere club-like, elongate, laterally directed, bent part slightly clavate (Fig. 3A,B); inner margin with tiny carina ending before bent part. Proctiger with large lateral tuft of setae, dorsal ridge slightly tumid and sparsely setose between tufts of setae (Fig. 3B); posterior face longer than wide with lateral, large tumescence on each side. Ventral rim with expansions flat, rounded, large, inner angle squared, surpassing level of posterolateral angles in ventral view (Fig. 3A,C); base of each expansion with a conspicuous transverse carina. Female (Fig. 3D). Gonocoxites 8 trapezoidal and somewhat flat, posterior margin straight or slightly concave, sutural border excavated, gonapophyses 9 partially exposed. Laterotergites 8 slightly curved laterally.
Comments. Breddin (1907) mentioned the similarity in size, form and color with E. quadridens. But, comparing the genitalia of both sexes, the species are easily separated. Males of H. claricolor (Fig. 3B) have expansions of the ventral rim larger than in H. quadriden s (Fig. 1B), posterior face of proctiger longer than wide (wider than long in H. quadriden s ), parameres and superior process of the genital cup narrower than in H. quadriden s . Females of H. claricolor (Fig. 3D) show gonocoxites 8 more flat and square than in H. quadriden s (Fig. 1D). Male of H. claricolor is described here for the first time.
Distribution (Fig. 21). BRAZIL: Amazonas, Pará.
