ETYMOLOGY: A noun in apposition; saudade is a word commonly used in the Brazilian music and literature to describe a bittersweet nostalgic feeling of both loss and fond memory of something or somone. We name this species saudade inspired by the song “chega de saudade” by the Brazilian musicians Vinicius da Moraes and Antonio Carlos Jobim.

DIAGNOSIS: Females resemble those of O. catarina and O. itapety by having external pockets but can be distinguished by the smaller size of the pockets and the more developed anterior receptaculum (figs. 136E, 139D, 143D).

MALE: Unknown.

FEMALE (PBI_OON 43353): Total length 1.36. Habitus as in figure 127A–C. ABDOMEN: Epigastric region weakly sclerotized. GENITALIA: As in diagnosis; internal pockets absent; posterior receptaculum absent, posterior apodeme formed by entire plate.

DISTRIBUTION: Known only from the type locality in Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul, map 25).
