Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin adjective spatiosus, - a, - um, meaning “large”, referring to the large S in ventral view; adjective.
Diagnosis. The female of P. spatiosa Zhang, Jäger & Liu , spec. nov. is similar to that of P. bibulba ( Xu & Yin, 2000) ( Xu & Yin 2000) by the S with distinct large lateral loops. It can be recognised by the anterior margins of LL forming a very wide “U” or “V”, sclerotised part of IDS forming 2 circles in ventral view (anterior margins of LL forming a trapezoid, sclerotised part of IDS building a “W” in P. bibulba ).
FEMALE (LJ20210628008): Measurements: Medium sized. Body length 11.8, DS length 4.9, width 4.6, OS length 6.9, width 5.5. Eyes: AME 0.18, ALE 0.31, PME 0.21, PLE 0.24, AME–AME 0.13, AME–ALE 0.08, PME–PME 0.19, PME–PLE 0.35, AME–PME 0.28, ALE–PLE 0.24, CH AME 0.37, CH ALE 0.31.
