Type material. CHINA, Guangdong Province: Holotype male from Huizhou City, Xiangtou Mountain , 23.31°N, 114.40°E, 474 m, 14 January 2021, Q. Lu leg. ( CBEE, LJ20210628003 ). GoogleMaps
Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin adjective strombuliformis , - is, - e, meaning “spiral”, referring to the E with lots of loops; adjective.
Diagnosis. The male of P. strombuliformis Zhang, Jäger & Liu , spec. nov. resembles that of P. maeklongensis Zhao & Li, 2018 ( Jiang et al. 2018) by their extremely elongated and spiral filiform E, but can be distinguished by: 1) Alveolus large, extending into distal cymbial half; 2) Cymbium with distinct proximo-retrolaterad protrusion, best seen in ventral view; 3) E forming 7 loops (alveolus small, not extending in distal half, cymbium without such distinct protrusion, E forming five loops in P. maeklongensis ).
MALE (LJ20210628003): Measurements: Small sized. Body length 7.5, DS length 3.8, width 3.4, OS length 3.7, width 2.0. Eyes: AME 0.17, ALE 0.33, PME 0.23, PLE 0.26, AME–AME 0.17, AME–ALE 0.09, PME–PME 0.20, PME–PLE 0.33, AME–PME 0.30, ALE–PLE 0.27, CH AME 0.36, CH ALE 0.31. Spination: Pp 131, 101, 2101; Fe I–III 323, IV 322; Pa I–IV 101; Ti I–IV 2126; Mt I–II 2024, III 3025, IV 3037. Measurements of palps and legs: Pp 6.7 (2.0, 0.8, 1.4, –, 2.5); I 15.8 (4.7, 1.7, 4.3, 3.7, 1.4); II 19.7 (5.5, 1.9, 5.7, 5.0, 1.6); III 14.5 (4.4, 1.4, 4.0, 3.4, 1.3); IV 16.5 (5.1, 1.1, 4.2, 4.6, 1.5). Leg formula: IIIV-I-III. Cheliceral furrow with ca. 16 denticles.
Palp ( Figs 231A–C View FIGURE 231 ): As in diagnosis. C arising from T at 12:00 o’clock position, short and filiform. E arising from T at 9:00–10:00 o’clock position, basally with stickshaped apophysis. Spermophor running submarginally along retrolateral T, seen prolaterally as much thinner tube with a strong bend proximally. RTA short and broad, arising medially from Ti.
Colouration ( Figs 232A–B View FIGURE 232 ): DS yellowish brown with dark tiny dots and lines. Fovea more distinctly marked than striae. OS dorsally yellow with brown dots at anterior part, with reddish-brown spots and patterns at posterior part. OS ventrally yellow with a regular pattern in the posterior half.
