Zhang, Y. Zhang, Z. Deng & Z. Li leg. ( CBEE, LJ202002505 ) GoogleMaps . Paratypes: 7 females, with same data as for holotype ( CBEE, LJ202002516 , LJ202002520 , LJ202002533 , LJ202002582 , LJ202002585 , LJ202002601 , LJ202002611 ) GoogleMaps .
Etymology. The specific name is derived from the type locality, the Daweishan Nature Reserve; adjective.
Diagnosis. The female of P. daweiensis Zhang, Jäger & Liu , spec. nov. is similar to those of P. alta Jäger, 2001 and P. birmanica Jäger, 2001 (Jäger 2001) by broad Vshaped anterior margins of LL but can be distinguished by: 1) Sclerotised part of IDS visible with one big lobe in ventral view (extends in longitudinal axis in P. alta , sclerotised parts of IDS visible to be trilobate in ventral view in P. birmanica ); 2) IDS not covered by LL in dorsal view (IDS covered by FW and LL in P. alta and P. birmanica ). The female of P. daweiensis Zhang, Jäger & Liu , spec. nov. is also similar to that of P. cangschana by FW well developed, covering most part of IDS, but can be distinguished by: 1) Anterior margins of LL slightly straight; 2) IDS suited posterior in ventral view (anterior margins of LL obviously curved, IDS suited almost median part in P. cangschana ).
FEMALE (LJ202002505): Measurements: Medium sized. Body length 10.4–11.1, DS length 4.2, width 3.8, OS length 6.4, width 5.0. Eyes: AME 0.19, ALE 0.27, PME 0.22, PLE 0.24, AME–AME 0.16, AME–ALE 0.08, PME–PME0.24, PME–PLE 0.35,AME–PME 0.32,ALE– PLE 0.28, CH AME 0.38, CH ALE 0.32. Spination: Pp 131, 101, 2121, 1014; Fe I–II 323, III 322–322; Pa I–III 101, IV 100; Ti I–II 2228, III–IV 2126; Mt I–II 2024, III 3025, IV 3036. Measurements of palps and legs: Pp 6.0 (1.7, 0.8, 1.3, –, 2.2); I 13.8 (4.0, 1.5, 3.9, 3.2, 1.2); II 16.0 (4.4, 1.9, 4.6, 3.6, 1.5); III 12.0 (3.8, 1.4, 3.0, 2.7, 1.1); IV 13.2 (4.2, 1.0, 3.2, 3.5, 1.3). Leg formula: II-I-IV-III. Cheliceral furrow with ca. 16 denticles.
Epigyne ( Figs 84A–C View FIGURE 84 ): As in diagnosis. EF almost as long as wide, short AB distinct parallel. LL touching each other along the posterior part of middle line. FW well developed, with convex lateral margins, covering the anterior part of S. FD long, narrow.
Colouration ( Figs 85A–B View FIGURE 85 ): DS yellow with dark spots, two lateral bands, margin with thin dashed line and dark pattern. Fovea and striae distinctly marked. OS dorsally reddish brown, with two yellow regions at anterior part, with lots of yellow dots. OS ventrally brown with lot of dark redbrown marks, irregularly arranged.
