Abstract

A new species of Calathotarsus Simon, 1903 is described from the Maule Region, Chile. Calathotarsus gigas sp. nov. (♂) it resembles in its general appearance the males of C. coronatus and C. simoni, but it is distinguished from them in that the males have a group of large upper retrolateral spines on the tibia I. Calathotarsus gigas sp. nov. it is the third species described for Chile, and becomes the southernmost record of the genus for the country.
