The specific name is a patronym in honour of the collector of the type series and our friend and colleague Kirill Y.

Diagnosis. Males can be distinguished from other congeners by an abruptly cut tip of embolus, long conductor with sclerotized distal part protruding obliquely forwards, and small terminal apophysis (Fig. 16). Females can be recognised by the wide transversal posterior part of septum (Fig. 19). Description. Male (holotype). Total length 4.9. Carapace 2.45 long, 1.85 wide. Prosoma. Carapace dark brown with light brown median band, distinct in thoracic part, widening but more obscure in cephalic part behind PLEs, as well as light brown lateral bands, each broken into three short longitudinal spots. Thoracic part with dark recumbent hairs, in median band and lateral spots also with whitish hairs. Ocular area with numerous whitish hairs. Clypeus sooty yellowish brown. Chelicerae sooty brownish with darker longitudinal veins and furnished with dark hairs, inner side and ventrally yellow, retromargin with 3 teeth.
