Etymology. The specific name is taken after the collector, Dr. Huifeng Zhao; name in genitive case.
Diagnosis. The new species is similar to S. phangngaensis Deeleman-Reinhold, 1995 but can be distinguished by the very short copulatory duct and the large spherical spermathecae ( Figs 27A–B View Figure 27 ). S. phangngaensis has a long copulatory duct and small oval spermathecae (Deeleman-Reinhold, 1995: fig. 290).

Prosoma: carapace pyriform, narrowing gradually anteriorly; shiny, light yellow, suffused with purplish pattern ( Fig. 27C View Figure 27 ); pars cephalica flat; fovea not visible. Sternum light yellow, suffused with purplish color, as long as wide ( Fig. 27D View Figure 27 ). Endites light yellow with serrula; labium light yellow. Clypeus nearly vertical; short. Chelicerae light yellow; promargin with a series of six teeth reaching the lamina; retromargin with two very small denticles ( Fig. 58G View Figure 58 ). Eyes: six contiguous eyes surrounded by black pigmentation, ALE, PME subequal, PLE largest ( Fig. 27C View Figure 27 ). Opisthosoma oval; purplish ( Fig. 27D View Figure 27 ). Legs light yellow; leg lengths I, II, IV missing; III 1.87 (0.51, 0.16, 0.50, 0.41, 0.29). Genitalia. Internal genitalia with afferent spermathecae short, curved posteriorly from epigastric furrow, not extending past the sides of the abdomen ( Fig. 27B View Figure 27 ); spermathecae spherical ( Fig. 27A View Figure 27 ).
