(Figs 461-467, 548)

Type material: Holotype. ♀, CHINA: Yunnan: Tengchong County: Jietou Township, Zhongping Village, Lijiazhai Group , N25.22180°, E098.41884°, 1820 m, May 24, 2006, C.M. Yin, J.F. Hu and X.H. Yang ( HNU, CASENT9025623 ) GoogleMaps .

Etymology: The species name came from Latin “renalis”, which means "of the kidneys", and refers to the kidney-shaped spermathecal tubes; adjective.

Diagnosis: The female of this new species can be easily distinguished from other Coelotinae by the laterally extending and expanding, kidney-shaped spermathecae (Figs 461-462). Both cheliceral pro- and retromargins have three teeth.

Description: Female (holotype). Large sized Coelotinae (Fig. 465). Total length 13.5. Dorsal shield of prosoma 6.25 long, 4.27 wide; opisthosoma 7.26 long, 4.95 wide. AME largest; ALE slightly smaller than AME; posterior eyes subequal, slightly smaller than ALE ( AME 0.19, ALE 0.17, PME 0.16, PLE 0.16); anterior eyes equally separated by about half of AME diameter; PME separated from each other by their diameter, widely separated from PLE by 1.5 times PME diameter (AME-AME 0.08, AME-ALE 0.09, PME-PME 0.17, PME-PLE 0.25, AME-PME 0.19) (Fig. 466). Labium slightly longer than wide (Fig. 467). Chelicera with 3 promarginal and 3 retromarginal teeth. Epigynal teeth long, situated anterolaterally of atrium, widely separated from each other by more than atrial width; atrium large, but shallow, longer than wide, with distinct, continuous anterior margin, but indistinct lateral margins; epigynal hoods distinct, situated at level posterior to epigynal teeth; copulatory ducts large, originating anteriorly, closely set; spermathecae with small, slightly separated bases and long, slender, anteriorly extending, laterally diverging and enlarged stalks, which are broad, kidney-shaped; spermathecal heads small, arising from distal half of spermathecae (Figs 461-464). Male. Unknown.

Distribution: China (Yunnan: Tengchong) (Fig. 548).
