Type material. CHINA, Sichuan Province: Holotype female from Guangyuan City, Qingchuan County, Qingxi Town , Sijiaowan Village , 32.63°N, 104.81°E, 2102 m, 7 May 2013 , J. Yang, L. Zhao & X. Meng leg. ( CBEE, LJ2125 ) GoogleMaps . Paratypes: 2 females, with same data as for holotype ( CBEE, LJ2126 – LJ2127 ) GoogleMaps .
Etymology. The specific name is derived from the type locality, the Qingxi Town; adjective.
Diagnosis. The female of P. qingxiensis Zhang, Jäger
& Liu, spec. nov. can be distinguished from those of all congeners by LL fused along median line in combination with the striking reticulate part of the vulva.

Some “fusion bubbles” present along median line of the former border between LL. IDS with loops posteriorly, and its anterior part covered by reticulate grid structure. FD short, narrow, situated posteriorly, tips dorsad.
Colouration ( Figs 204A–B View FIGURE 204 ): DS yellow with dark spots and marbled pattern inbetween. Fovea marked by a pair of close dots anteriorly and a triangular patch posteriorly. OS dorsally yellow with lots of marks and irregular pattern, with a transverse reddish-brown line and reddish-brown region at posterior part.
