The specific name refers to the type locality, Bijiashan; adjective. Differential diagnosis. The new species differs from O. fabiformis Liu, Xu, Xiao, Yin & Peng, 2019 and O. hippocampa Jin, Fu, Yin & Zhang, 2016 by the short hook-shaped embolus (Figs 9D , 11A, B ) (vs. spine-like in O. fabiformis and O. hippocampa ), and the C-shaped spermathecae (Fig. 10D ) (vs. peanut-like in O. fabiformis and globular in O. hippocampa ).
