Diagnosis: Males of P. titan are characterized by the RTA with pointed tip and dorsal margin provided with two short tooth-shaped excrescences, the proximal part of the tegulum long and produced forward to the margin of the embolus and with a RAPT with two short prongs. Females are recognized by the large fold spanning the entire width of the epigyne and its broad semicircular fold in the centre.
Etymology: The name of the species is a noun in apposition and refers to the size of the animals; the Titans were giants in Greek mythology, the children of Ouranos and Gaia.
