description The genus Hatitia Brescovit, 1997 includes six species, the type species Hatitia yhuaia Brescovit, 1997, distributed in Peru, H. canchaque Brescovit, 1997, from Peru and Ecuador and H. defolonguei (Berland, 1913), H. perrieri (Berland, 1913) and H. riveti (Berland, 1913) all from Ecuador and H. sericiea (L. Koch, 1866) recorded in Colombia. The analysis of recent material from Hatitia specimens has allowed the records of Hatitia yhuaia to be expanded and to describe five additional species: H. zarate sp. nov. from Peru; H. winayhuayna sp. nov. from Peru and Bolivia; H. cajuata sp. nov. from Bolivia; H. oxapampa sp. nov. and H. machiguenga sp. nov. known only from Peru. Furthermore, Anyphaena mollicoma Keyserling, 1879 is considered a junior synonym of Hatitia sericea. As a result, a new emended diagnosis of the genus is presented. Additionally, complementary morphological data of Hatitia yhuaia are documented.
