Diagnosis.

The new species is similar to Orchestina codalmasi Wunderlich, 2011 (female unknown) and Orchestina sublongituba sp. nov. in the strongly coiled sperm duct and the enlarged palpal tibia, but can be distinguished from O. codalmasi by the very long tube-shaped embolus (vs short; cf. Fig. 12 A, B, D View Figure 12 and Wunderlich 2008: fig. 7); from O. sublongituba by palpal tibia narrower than bulbus (vs wider; cf. Fig. 12 A, B View Figure 12 and Fig. 21 A, B View Figure 21 ), the diamond-shaped labium (vs tongue-shaped; cf. Fig. 12 C View Figure 12 and Fig. 21 C View Figure 21 ) and the obscure marking on epigaster (vs saddle-shaped; cf. Fig. 11 H View Figure 11 and Fig. 20 H View Figure 20 ).
