Distance PME-PME 265 µm, diameter PME 95 µm, distance PME-ALE 45 µm, AME absent (only black spots without lenses). COLOR. Carapace ochre-orange with large brown median mark, ocular area also brown, sternum medially slightly darkened; legs with dark rings on femora subdistally, patellae plus tibiae proximally, and tibiae subdistally; abdomen grey with internal black and whitish spots dorsally and laterally. BODY. Habitus as in Fig. 63; ocular area slightly elevated, each triad on short hump directed laterally; carapace without median furrow; clypeus unmodified; sternum wider than long (0.66/0.52), unmodified. Chelicerae as in Fig. 72, with pair of lateral processes proximally, pair of frontal apophyses proximally, and pair of frontal apophyses distally provided with two modified hairs each; without stridulatory ridges. PALPS. As in Figs 66-71, coxa unmodified, trochanter with short and wide retrolatero-ventral apophysis, femur with short retrolatero-dorsal process proximally, procursus complex, with distinctive sclerotized and membranous elements; bulb with large uncus, simple weakly sclerotized embolus, and hooked appendix. LEGS. Without spines and curved hairs, few vertical hairs; retrolateral trichobothrium on tibia 1 at 3%; prolateral trichobothrium absent on tibia 1, present on other tibiae; tarsus 1 with>20 pseudosegments, only distally fairly distinct. VARIATION. Tibia 1 in 22 other males: 6.7-8.8 (mean 7.9). Clypeus variably dark; AME spots sometimes fused. In most males the palps are extended and the bulbs rotated as in Fig. 71. Female In general similar to male; tibia 1 in 36 females: 5.3-7.1 (mean 6.3). Epigynum with distinct plate and ‘knob’, anterior area weakly sclerotized, ‘valve’ and other internal structures visible through cuticle (Fig. 64); internal genitalia as in Figs 65 and 73-74. Natural history The spiders were mostly found in the leaf litter and in cavities in the ground (Fig. 12), sometimes sharing the microhabitat with a representative of Smeringopina (e.g. S. moudouma Huber, 2013 in forest near Lastoursville; S. fang Huber, 2013 between Yéno and Mouila; S. lekoni Huber, 2013 at Lékoni River). The two specimens from Moudouma were found at the rock surface (Fig. 13) close to a small brook. Distribution Known from various localities in Gabon south of the Ogooué-Ivindo Rivers (Fig. 27; the closely related P. moca Huber, 2011 seems to be confined to the north of these rivers).Published as part of Bernhard A. Huber, Philippe Le Gall & Jacques Francois Mavoungou, 2014, Pholcid spiders from the Lower Guinean region of Central Africa: an overview, with descriptions of seven new species (Araneae, Pholcidae), pp. 1-46 in European Journal of Taxonomy 81 on pages 28-32, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2014.81, http://zenodo.org/record/83085
