Material examined: 3 females and 1 juvenile; Iran, Khuzestan Province, Izeh, Takht-e Kashan , 31°50’N, 49°52’E, 15.III.2018; leg. A. Zamani. GoogleMaps – 1 large juvenile male (probably subadult; ex coll. A. Senglet); Iran, Kerman Province, 20 km north of Ravar , 31°26’N, 56°51’E, 1150 m alt.; 14.IV.1974; leg. J. Garzoni. GoogleMaps
Remarks: The available material consists only of females and juveniles, which show no clearly distinctive features. The vulva of the largest female from Khuzestan is slightly different from those of P. raddei and P. roxana females illustrated in the literature ( Schwendinger & Zonstein, 2011: figs 4A-H, 5A-H, 8A-H), and therefore it is quite possible that the specimens from southwestern Iran belong to another new species. However, until an adult male from this population becomes available, this will remain an open question. The juvenile male from Kerman may be conspecific with the holotype of P. gedrosia sp. nov., but that also requires confirmation by collecting adult males at the same locality.
