Figs 169–170 , Map 4 Type material. CHINA , Yunnan Province : Holotype female from Puer City, Mojiang Hani Autonomous County, 23.43°N , 101.69°E , 1419 m , 1 May 2015 , D. Wang & X. Jiang leg. ( CBEE , LJ 2115). Paratype : 1 female , with same data as for holotype ( CBEE , LJ2116 ) . Etymology. The specific name is derived from the type locality, the Mojiang Hani Autonomous County; adjective. Diagnosis. The female of P. mojiangensis Zhang, Jäger & Liu , spec. nov. is similar to that of P. signata by: 1) Having anterior margins of LL V-shaped and anteriorly bend inwards, at least posterior part to AB situated between anterior margins of LL; 2) LL with bands of muscle sigilla in their lateral parts; 3) IDS with characteristic sclerotised parts elongated and distinctly seen in ventral view, but can be distiunguished by: 1) Sclerotised parts of IDS more or less transversally oriented in one line; 2) FW slightly converging posteriorly (IDS arranged in an angle, FW diverging posteriorly in P. signata ). FEMALE (LJ2115): Measurements: Medium sized. Body length 11.2–11.6, DS length 4.7, width 4.2, OS length 6.5, width 4.9.
