Diagnosis: The new species is characterized by the shape of both male carapace and palpal tibia. Etymology: The specific name coronatus is a Latin adjective meaning "crowned", referring to the male cephalic structure. Description: Male (female unknown). Total length Carapace long, wide, medially with a large conical "hump". Cephalic division elevated, with four specific setae. Two different shapes of carapace: carapace form a — Figs 6—7 (specimen from Ilam Distr.), and carapace form b — Figs 8—9 (specimen from Panchthar and Taplejung distr.). No differences whatever in palpal structure regardless of carapace shape. Chelicerae long. Legs pale brown. Leg long ( + + + + ), long ( + + + + ). Chaetotaxy: Each metatarsus with a trichobothrium. Tm I — Palp as in Figs 10—12. Abdomen long, wide, dorsal pattern as in Fig. 13. Taxonomic remarks: The new species is very closely related to ángelus n. sp., being well distinguished by the shape of the
