Prosoponoides shaanxi sp. n. is described, based on a single male from high altitude in the Qinling Mountains, Shaanxi Province, China. The species is similar to both Oriental Prosoponoides hamatum Millidge & Russell-Smith, 1992 and P. sinense (Chen, 1991), but it can easily be distinguished by structural details of the palp. Prosoponoides shaanxi sp. n. is the first species of the genus reported from the Palaearctic Region.
