Yaginumanis yuanwencai K. Liu sp. nov. Figs 10, 11, 12 D – F Common name: 袁文才后雅蛛 Type material. Holotype ♂, China • Jiangxi Province: Ji’an County, Jinggangshan County Level City, Jinggang Mountain National Nature Reserve, Ciping Town, Longtan Scenic Spot, 26°35'24"N, 114°8'16.8"E, 939 m a. s. l., 1 June 2014, Ke-ke Liu, Yu-bao Tang, Ze-yuan Meng, Xiao-ping Huang, Zhi-wu Chen, and Zhan-feng Wang leg. (Sal- 097, ASM-JGSU). Paratypes: • 1 ♀, Dajing Village, Dajing Forest Farm, 26°34'12"N, 114°7'19.2"E, 956 m a. s. l., 27 August 2015, Zhi-wu Chen, Chun-qi Dong, Ji-hao Zhang, etc. leg., other data as same as holotype (Sal- 171, ASM-JGSU); • 1 ♀, Dajing Village, Jiangjun Park, 26°33'54"N, 114°7'30"E, 927 m a. s. l., 26 August 2015, other data as same as previous data (Sal- 171, ASM-JGSU); • 2 ♀, Luofu Town, Xiangzhou Village, 26°37'8.4"N, 114°16'12"E, 922 m a. s. l., 13 July 2015, Ce Xu, Shi-cong He, Ze-yuan Meng, Sha Wu, Yi-fan Zhao and Ke-ke Liu leg., other data as same as previous data (Sal- 171, ASM-JGSU). Diagnosis. Male is similar to that of Yaginumanis sexdentatus (Yaginuma, 1967) (cf. Fig. 10 C-F and Bohdanowicz and Prószyński 1987: 46, figs 1–3) in having the fan-shaped ventral tibial apophysis and finger-like retrolateral tibial apophysis with a curved basal apophysis, but can be easily distinguished from it by the broad strongly curved embolus (vs relatively thin and only slightly curved in Y. sexdentatus), the band-like conductor (vs oval in Y. sexdentatus), and the nearly square tegular apophysis (vs triangular in Y. sexdentatus) in ventral view. The female of this species resembles that of Y. sexdentatus (cf. Fig. 11 C, D and Bohdanowicz and Prószyński 1987: 46, figs 4, 5) in having the spermathecae with a constriction medially, but can be easily distinguished from it by the large atrium covering more than 1 / 2 of the epigynal plate (vs small, <1 / 3 of epigynal plate in Y. sexdentatus), and the distinct broad copulatory ducts (vs indistinct in Y. sexdentatus). The female of this species also resembles that of Y. wanlessi Zhang & Li, 2005 (cf. Fig. 11 C, D and Zhang and Li 2005: 227, fig. 5 D, E) in having a thickened arc-shaped margin of the copulatory openings, but can be easily differentiated by the spermathecae having a distinct constriction (vs absent in Y. wanlessi).
