Fig. 14 H and Ono 2005: fig. 6). Description. Male (holotype). Body: habitus as in Fig. 13 A – C; body length 1.05. Carapace (Fig. 13 E, G): 0.54 long, 0.42 wide; yellow.

Mouthparts (Figs 13 D, F, 15 C): labium rectangular, with anterior margin anteriorly projecting at middle, not fused to sternum; endites strongly sclerotized, with serrula in single row, outer margin smoothly curved. Abdomen ovoid, 0.48 long; dorsum soft portions pale white, without color pattern. Legs: yellow, without color pattern; femur IV thickened, wider than femora I-III. Palp (Fig. 15 A, B, D): tibia strongly enlarged, length / width = 1.87, cymbium small; bulb long pear-shaped in lateral view, with ventral side strongly protruding proximally, ca 1.09 × as wide as tibia; the sperm duct with two loops in prolateral view; embolus long tube-shaped, with a sub-apical node. Female (SYNU -1562). Same as male except as noted. Body: habitus as in Fig. 14 A – C; body length 1.11. Carapace (Fig. 14 E, G): 0.62 long, 0.43 wide. Abdomen: 0.51 long. Epigaster (Fig. 14 H): without special external features. Endogyne (Fig. 15 E, F): with slender medial clavate sclerite (AUS), provided with pair of long lateral protrusions (Pr); anterior receptaculum (ARe) rounded, semitransparent, slightly longer than AUS; posterior plate (PP) present, large. Distribution. Known only from the type locality. Etymology. The specific name is named after the collector, Qingyuan Zhao.
