Diagnosis.
Pimoa deqen sp. nov. resembles those of P. lihengae Griswold, Long & Hormiga, 1999 (see Griswold et al. 1999: 91-97, figs 18-21) and P. wanglangensis Yuan, Zhao & Zhang, 2019 (see Yuan et al. 2019: 27, fig. 22G, H) but can be distinguished from P. lihengae by the tongue-shaped dorsal plate (Fig. 8B View Figure 8 ) (vs. triangular) and from P. wanglangensis by the unseparated spermathecae (Fig. 8A View Figure 8 ) (vs. separated by a short distance).
