It refers to the enslaved people, known as Maroons, who escaped to the Blue Mountains to live independently, when Jamaica's economy was dominated by plantation slavery. Diagnosis. Males of N. maroon sp. nov. resemble those of N. bryantae sp. nov. and N. gunboat sp. nov. (Figs 42, 70) in the vRTA bifid (Fig. 115). They are distinguished from both species by the TBE bifid ... : Published as part of Rheims, Cristina Anne & Alayón, Giraldo, 2016, Neostasina gen. nov., a new genus of huntsman spiders from the Neotropical region (Araneae, Sparassidae, Sparianthinae), pp. 301-344 in Zootaxa 4079 (3) on pages 332-334, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4079.3.1, http://zenodo.org/record/1050744 ...
