Acanthogonatus recinto is a mygalomorph spider of Chile , its name arising from its type locality: Recinto, Nuble, Region VIII, Chile.[1] Females are distinguished from those of A. franki by the spermathecae, having a more rounded and differentiated fundus and its basal portion extended internally, compared to those of A. peniasco with a narrower, longer and less sclerotized ducts; and from other species in the genus by having 1-1-1 P spines on its patella IV. Males differ from those of A.franki in the unique winglike projection at the base of the embolus.
