Holotype. ♀ from GABON: leg. Mocquery (No further data) (MNHN-17.436).

Etymology. The specific name is a patronym honoring French arachnologist Eugène Simon, who described Carteronius.

Diagnosis. Females of C. simoni sp. nov. are similar to those of C. lumumba sp. nov. by the inconspicuous lateral plates of the posterior epigynal sector (Figs 16D, 17C) but can be recognized by the wider, divergent copulatory ducts (Fig. 17C).
