Type material. Holotype: Ƥ, CHINA: Yunnan, Xishuangbanna, Mengla County, Menglun Town, Menglun Nature Reserve, Rubber plantation (about 20 years old, N21º54.463', E101º15.978', 569 m), 9–13 August 2006, leg G. Zheng, pitfall traps (IZCAS-Ar. 19101).
Etymology. The specific name comes from the combination: sub- + mirabilis , refers to the similarity between this new species and O. mirabilis .
Diagnosis. This species is similar to O. mirabilis Zhang, Yang & Zhu, 2005 and O. gaofengensis Zhang, Zhang & Kim, 2005 , but can be separated from O. mirabilis by the width of two spermathecae / width of median sclerotized plate = 4.0 (1.5 in O. mirabilis ); from O. gaofengensis by the complicated twisting of the copulatory ducts (simple in O. gaofengensis ), the tip of sclerotozed plate is convex (concave in O. gaofengensis ).
Description. Female (holotype): Total length 6.00. Prosoma 2.50 long, 2.00 wide; opisthosoma 3.50 long, 1.65 wide. Carapace yellow. Eye measurements: AME 0.13, ALE 0.28, PME 0.26, PLE 0.25, AME-AME 0.25; AME-ALE 0.08; PME-PME 0.34; PME-PLE 0.30. Eye row width measurement: I 0.48, II 0.84, III 1.40, IV 0.78. Clypeus height 0.82. Sternum and chelicera yellow; labium and endites brown. Leg measurements: I lost; II 16.80 (4.60, 5.70, 5.10, 1.40); III 13.90 (4.00, 4.50, 4.20, 1.20); IV lost. Opisthosoma dorsally gray with grayish-white broken spots, laterally with grayish-black stripes; ventrally with a grayish-black marking mesally.
Epigynum ( Figs 31 View FIGURE 31 B–C, 32A–B). Epigynum with a median sclerotized plate, the anterior part of copulatory ducts large, translucent, depression-shaped; posterior part of copulatory ducts twisted two times, spermatheca slightly thicker than copulatory ducts.
Male: Unknown.
Distribution. China (Yunnan).
