Resumo:
The genus Miagrammopes O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1870 is represented by 68 species with a cosmopolitan distribution of which 25 occurs on the Neotropics and 8 on Brazil. These spiders can be readily recognized by the anterior eyes lacking, labium and endites longer than wider and conspicuous intercoxal projections that can divide the sternum in three thin and flexible transversal plates. Despite its tropical and subtropical abundance and diversity the taxonomy of the genus is confused, the originals descriptions lack of value of taxonomic characters for the distinction of included species and the illustrations are poorly represented or there are no illustrations. This study proposes the revision of the Brazilian species of Miagrammopes. As results Miagrammopes correai Piza, 1944 and Miagrammopes lacteovittatus Mello-Leitão, 1947 were identified as junior subjectives synonyms of Miagrammopes guttatus Mello-Leitão, 1937; M. larundus Chickering, 1968 was identified as junior subjective synonyms of M. unipus Chickering, 1968, and the later was reported for Brazil and redescribed. Miagrammopes brasiliensis Roewer, 1951, M. rubripes, Mello-Leitão, 1949 and M. luederwaldti Mello-Leitão, 1925 were redescribed and the neotypes were determined; and three new species from Brazil were added and described, named M. boraceia new species, M. itaara new species and M. uatuman new species.
