Diagnosis. The female of P. mojiangensis Zhang, Jäger & Liu , spec. nov. is similar to that of P. signata by: 1) Having anterior margins of LL V-shaped and anteriorly bend inwards, at least posterior part to AB situated between anterior margins of LL; 2) LL with bands of muscle sigilla in their lateral parts; 3) IDS with characteristic sclerotised parts elongated and distinctly seen in ventral view, but can be distiunguished by: 1) Sclerotised parts of IDS more or less transversally oriented in one line; 2) FW slightly converging posteriorly (IDS arranged in an angle, FW diverging posteriorly in P. signata ).
FEMALE (LJ2115): Measurements: Medium sized. Body length 11.2–11.6, DS length 4.7, width 4.2, OS length 6.5, width 4.9. Eyes: AME 0.18, ALE 0.28, PME 0.22, PLE 0.25,AME–AME 0.22,AME–ALE 0.14, PME– PME 0.24, PME–PLE 0.38, AME–PME 0.34, ALE–PLE 0.28, CH AME 0.41, CH ALE 0.36. Spination: Pp 131, 101, 2121, 1014; Fe I–II 323, III–IV 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 5.0 (1.5, 0.6, 1.0, –, 1.9); I 13.1 (3.7, 1.7, 3.4, 3.0, 1.3); II 16.3 (4.3, 2.1, 4.6, 3.5, 1.8); III 11.7 (3.3, 1.6, 3.0, 2.7, 1.1); IV 13.8 (4.1, 1.4, 3.2, 3.4, 1.7). Leg formula: II-IV-I-III. Cheliceral furrow with ca. 26 denticles.
Epigyne ( Figs 169A–C View FIGURE 169 ): As in diagnosis. EF wider than long, AB indistinct. Posterior part of LL almost straight. FW well developed, almost covering the entire sclerotised IDS. FD long, laterad in ventral view.
Colouration ( Figs 170A–B View FIGURE 170 ): DS reddish brown with dark spots and lines. Fovea and striae distinctly marked. OS dark yellowish brown, dorsally with a transverse reddish-brown line at posterior part, ventrally with several reddish-brown marks, irregular arranged.
