Abstract

A morphological study of the type material of two Colombian theraphosid species in the genus Thalerommata Ausserer, 1875, deposited in the European spider collections of the Natural History Museum, London, and Muséum national d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris, enables us to establish a new synonym: T. macella (Simon, 1903) is designated as a junior synonym of T. gracilis Ausserer, 1875.
