Type material.
Holotype: ♀ (IZCAS-Ar41933), China, Sichuan Province, Danba County, Geshizha Township, Jintou Stockaded Village, 31.07°N, 101.66°E, ca. 2639 m, 25.XI.2019, Z. Chen leg. Paratypes: 2♀ (IZCAS-Ar41934-Ar41935), same data as holotype.
Etymology.
The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality.
Diagnosis.
Pimoa danba sp. nov. resembles those of P. cawarong sp. nov. (Fig. 5A-D View Figure 5 ) and P. indiscreta Hormiga, 1994 (see Hormiga 1994a: 66, figs 248-255) but can be distinguished by the nearly round spermathecae separated by ca. 1/4 width of a spermatheca (Fig. 7A View Figure 7 ) (vs. subtriangular, unseparated in P. cawarong sp. nov., and nearly oval, separated by a short distance in P. indiscreta ), by the distally narrow ventral plate with a depression (Fig. 7A View Figure 7 ) (vs. without depression in P. cawarong sp. nov., and triangular, without depression in P. indiscreta ), and also from P. indiscreta by the laterally oriented fertilization ducts (Fig. 7B View Figure 7 ) (vs. medially oriented).
