"Discussion: Poecilotheria nallamalaiensis sp. nov. shows close resemblence to Poecilotheria formosa, P. fasciata and P. miranda but differs from these as:
1. It resembles with P. formosa in color pattern on Legs I & IV but it differs in having 3 black, blunt tubercles on prolateral face of the maxillae instead of 1 and also the stridulating organ on outer face of chelicerae with few short pointed tubercles and remaining with granular beaded structure unlike in P. formosa.
2. It resembles with P. miranda in having 3 black blunt tubercles on prolateral face of maxillae but differs in not having same color pattern on Legs I & IV and also a different shape of spermathecae.
3. It resembles with P. fasciata in having undivided spermathecae but it differs in having different type of stridulating organ and different number and placement of peg like bacilliform setae.
Poecilotheria nallamalaiensis sp. nov. in general differs in having different pattern of abdominal color and Peacock-greenish-blue color tarsal scopulae on legs I & IV and posterior median eyes larger than posterior laterals.
All these characters show distinction from all known Poecilotheria species known from India."
