Type material.

Holotype ♀ (ZMMU): Tajikstan: Khatlon Area, Hissar Mt. Range, Ramit Reserve, 38°44'36"N, 69°18'30"E, 1324 m, 1.05.2015 (Y.M. Marusik). Paratypes: 4♀ (IZCAS), 2♀ (ZMMU), same data as holotype.

Etymology.

The specific name is an adjective and refers to the type locality; adjective.

Diagnosis.

The female can be distinguished from all other Pireneitega species except Pireneitega muratovi sp. n., Pireneitega fedotovi , Pireneitega luniformis and Pireneitega major , by having an elongate oval atrium, narrow epigynal teeth, and long copulatory ducts. It can be distinguished from Pireneitega muratovi sp. n. and Pireneitega luniformis by the narrow tip of the copulatory ducts (vs round tip in Pireneitega muratovi sp. n. and Pireneitega luniformis ) and from Pireneitega fedotovi and Pireneitega major by the bent epigynal teeth (vs straight epigynal teeth in Pireneitega fedotovi and Pireneitega major ) (Figs 3, 5, 7; Charitonov 1946: fig. 4; Zhu and Wang 1994: figs 5-6).
