Type material.
Holotype: ♀ (IZCAS-Ar41942), China, Tibet, Lhoka, Gyaca County, on the way to the Lhamo Latso Lake, 29.39°N, 92.75°E, ca. 4435 m, 11.VIII.2019, X. Zhang, Z. Bai and J. Liu leg. Paratypes: 2♀ (IZCAS-Ar41943-Ar41944), same data as holotype.
Etymology.
The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.
Diagnosis.
Pimoa gyaca sp. nov. resembles those of P. crispa (Fage, 1946) (see Hormiga 1994a: 63, figs 239-247) and P. mainling Zhang & Li, 2020 (see Zhang et al. 2020: 89, fig. 7A-D) but can be distinguished from P. crispa by the triangular ventral plate (Fig. 12A View Figure 12 ) (vs. distally blunt) and from P. mainling by the triangular epigyne (Fig. 12A View Figure 12 ) (vs. funnel shaped) and also by the spermathecae separated by the width of a spermatheca (Fig. 12A View Figure 12 ) (vs. ca. 1/3 width of a spermatheca).

Female (holotype): Total length 8.00. Carapace 3.68 long, 2.78 wide. Abdomen 4.32 long, 3.36 wide.
