Diagnosis.
Pimoa cawarong sp. nov. resembles those of P. nyingchi (see Zhang et al. 2020: 91, fig. 8A-C) and P. reniformis (see Xu and Li 2007: 493, figs 36-41) but can be distinguished from P. nyingchi by the width of the ventral plate ca. 1/2 of length (Fig. 5A View Figure 5 ) (vs. length subequal to width) and by the narrow, distally blunt dorsal plate (Fig. 5B View Figure 5 ) (vs. wide medially and pointed distally), and can be distinguished from P. reniformis by the funnel-shaped epigyne (Fig. 5A View Figure 5 ) (vs. triangular).
