We describe a new species Orthochirus katerinae sp. n. from Saudi Arabia, previously cited as Orthochirus innesi Simon 1910, ssp. ?, the name many years used as an 'umbrella' for various Orthochirus from North Africa and Arabia. The new species is described based on males characterized mainly by: total length 26-30 mm; pectinal teeth number 16-20; movable finger of pedipalps with 7-8 rows of denticles, 8-9 ID and 7 OD; tarsomere I of legs I-III with 3-5 long setae; ratio length/width of metasoma V 1.13-1.16; pedipalp femur length/width ratio 3.30-3.32.
