            </p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p> The species is morphologically similar to  Sinocallipus catba from which it can be distinguished by its larger body, a gonocoxal process g that is more than 3 × the length of process k, a differently shaped trochanteral process of leg 9 in males, and paraprocts divided into two, nearly equal-sized sclerites (Stoev and Enghoff 2011). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p>The species was described originally from three caves situated in the region of Phong Nha and Cha Noi communes in Quang Binh Province. It is now reported from another cave (Tu Lan), located approximately 15 km northeast from the other localities at Cha Noi.</p>

            <p>Description of type locality.</p>
            <p>The species was discovered in two caves within the Na Hang Nature Reserve, Tuyen Quang Province in northern Vietnam. Khuoi Pin Cave is located on the mountainside, measuring approximately 300 meters in length and 10 meters in height. The cave floor consists of sandy soil and small rocks. It is notably wet, with some water flow on the ground, and the air humidity is around 90 %, while the temperature remains consistently at 20 ° C. The cave also contains numerous small branches contributing to its unique ecosystem (Fig. 3 A, C, D).</p>
            <p>Na Mang Cave is situated near the base of the mountain. Its floor consists of sandy soil. Similar to Khuoi Pin Cave, it exhibits high humidity levels (around 90 %) and maintains a consistent temperature of 20 ° C. The cave is small and narrow with water flows on the ground (Fig. 3 B).</p>
            <p>Both caves are recognized for their rich biodiversity, hosting a variety of species, including several unidentified glyphiulid, haplodesmid and callipodidan millipedes, as well as spiders, crickets, and bats. Notably, all millipede specimens were gathered from the aphotic zone in both caves, indicating that the species are specialized to the cave environment.</p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> From the Latin word  “ similis ” meaning “ similar ” or “ like ”. The name denotes the morphological similarity between the new species and  Sinocallipus deharvengi from Quang Binh Province in Vietnam. </p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p>This species can be recognized by having up to 79 pleurotergites (in adult females, males with 78), yellowish body, long antennae, 5 + 5 crests between the ozopores on midbody PTs, almost equally subdivided paraprocts, gonopods with strongly swollen and long gonocoxal process g, and a long, trochanteral process of leg 9 with a pointed tip.</p>
            <p>Diagnosis remarks.</p>
            <p> It can be distinguished from  S. deharvengi by antennal length (9.5 mm in  S. similis vs. 9.7 mm in  S. deharvengi ), antennal coloration (antennomere 2 yellow, antennomeres, 3–5 partially brown in  S. similis vs. antennomere 2–5 brown in  S. deharvengi ), different shape of trochanteral process h (long with a pointed tip in  S. similis vs. short in  S. deharvengi ) and length of gonocoxal process g (2 × as long as process k in  S. similis vs. 3 × as long as process k in  S. deharvengi ); from  S. catba by: body colouration (yellow in  S. similis vs white in  S. catba ), length of gonocoxal process g (2 × as long as process k in  S. similis vs 1.5 × as long as process k in  S. catba ), division of paraproct (paraprocts divided into two almost equal-sized sclerites in  S. similis vs paraprocts divided into larger ventral and smaller dorsal sclerites in  S. catba ). Pairwise genetic distances for COI between  S. similis sp. nov. , and  S. catba and  S. deharvengi are 17.1 % and 21.9 %, respectively. </p>
            <p>Description.</p>
            <p>Male. Body rings 65–78 PT plus telson (Holotype ♂: 71 PT plus telson). Length 68.4–72.3 mm (Holotype ♂: 70.5 mm), width of midbody PT 3.2 mm, height of midbody PT 3.4 mm.</p>
            <p>Colouration: Body uniformly white-yellowish in alive specimens (Fig. 3 D) and yellow in preserved specimens, without particular colouration pattern, metazonites without posterior band. Head: Uniformly pale yellow, pilose; cephalic suture visible on vertex (Fig. 4 B). Antennae: Long, extending beyond the posterior edge of PT 10 when folded backwards; antennomeres, 2 yellow, 3–5 partially brown, 6–7 light yellow (Fig. 4 A); length of antennomeres, 1: 0.3 mm, 2: 2.1 mm, 3: 2.5 mm, 4: 1.6 mm, 5: 1.7 mm, 6: 0.9 mm, 7: 0.4 mm; antennomere ratio: 3&gt; 2&gt; 5&gt; 4&gt; 6&gt; 7&gt; 1; tip of antennomere 7 with four short cones (Fig. 4 C).

Spinnerets long and slender, ending with a long seta (Fig. 5 B, C). All setae on telson dark brown, contrasting with the yellow background (Fig. 5 B).</p>
            <p>Legs: All legs yellowish, long and slender, ending with a long claw. Tarsal pads very poorly developed, present on leg pairs 3–12. No particular modifications on coxae of pregonopodal legs. Coxal sacs present on pregonopodal legs (Fig. 5 D). Prefemora of legs 4–7 normal.</p>
            <p>Leg-pair 9 (Figs 7 A, B, 9 A): Coxite roundly subtrapezoidal; trochanter expanded medio-ventrad forming a rather elongated process h with a long, pointed tip, and a tiny triangular process z.</p>
            <p>Chaetotaxy: All setae broken off. The last two PT each with 9 + 9 setae.</p>
            <p>Gonopods (Fig. 8): Coxite (cx) large and broad; the large coxal process g more than 2 x the length of process k, processes g and k apically rounded, not truncated. Prefemorite condensed, short, 0.25 × as long as femorite length. Femoroid (fe) long, but stout, sparsely setose on distally antero-lateral and postero-lateral sides; distal part with three slender, acicular (n), and one shorter and subfalcate (m) terminal projections. Cannula (ca): long, slender, filiform.</p>

            </p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p> Although only female specimens were collected and examined in the present study, the identity of the species is clear and well-supported.  S. catba can be distinguished from its congeners by its white-yellowish body (Fig. 1 A), a black eye composed of more than 30 ommatidia (Fig. 1 B), and long antennae that extend beyond the posterior edge of pleurotergite (= PT) 7 when folded backwards. It also has 5 + 5 crests between the ozopores on midbody pleurotergites (= PTs), a gonocoxal process g that is approximately 1.5 × the length of process k, and paraprocts divided into larger ventral and smaller dorsal sclerites (Fig. 1 C; Stoev and Enghoff 2011). The females studied here have well-developed, highly elevated cylindrical cyphopods (Fig. 1 D). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p>The species is currently known from three caves on Cat Ba Island: Hoa Cuong Cave and Tien Duc Cave (Stoev and Enghoff 2011), and Trung Trang (present study).</p>
