Diagnosis. Females of Kituba langalanga sp. nov. differ from those of K. mayombensis sp. nov. by the epigyne with the epigynal plate not surpassing the epigastric furrow (surpassing the epigastric furrow in K. mayombensis sp. nov.) and copulatory openings rounded with C-shaped sclerotized margins (under small triangular hood-like ridges in K. mayombensis sp. nov.) (Fig. 43A). Males are unknown.
