Etymology.
The specific name is a Latin adjective
“
montana
” (mountainous), referring to the habitat of the
type
specimens.
Diagnosis.
The new species resembles
P. parallela
(
Wider, 1834
)
in the male carapace, the embolus shape and dorsal apophysis of male palp, but easily distinguished from the latter by the shape of suprategular apophysis and terminal apophysis (
Fig. 10
C-E).
