Copulatory ducts relatively broad, extending from anterior to sub-posterior vulva. Spermathecae oval, large, convergent, with parallel inner margin and a distinct constriction. Fertilization ducts relatively long, located postero-medially, directed anteriorly. Diagnosis Males of this new species are similar to those of Anyphaena taiwanensis Chen & Huang, 2011 (Chen and Huang (2011): 80, figs 4, 5) and A. yoshitakei Baba & Tanikawa, 2017 (Baba and Tanikawa (2017): 31, fig. 1 F, G) in having the shoe-shaped tibial apophysis with an upward thick hook-shaped branch at base, the hook-shaped median apophysis curved ventrally and the flagelliform embolus, but can be distinguished from it by the translucent trapezoidal conductor with a triangular-shaped tip (vs the oval conductor with a long nose-shaped tip in A. taiwanensis and the sub-trapezoidal conductor with a blunt saddle-like tip in A. yoshitakei) (Fig. 2 A-C). Female of this species can be easily distinguished from that of A. taiwanensis (Chen and Huang (2011): 80, figs 8, 9) and A. yoshitakei (Baba and Tanikawa (2017): 31, fig. 1 C, D) by the slender atrium (vs relatively broad in A. taiwanensis and A. yoshitakei) and the parallel inner margin of spermathecae (vs slightly splayed in A. taiwanensis and convergent in A. yoshitakei) (Fig. 2 D, E). Etymology The specific name is a noun in apposition and refers to the type locality, Chinese characters " 雷打石 ". Distribution Known only from the type locality in Jiangxi Province, China (Fig. 3). Biology Specimens were mainly collected under the bark in a broad-leaved forest.
