FIGS 17–18, 20

Type material. Holotype: ♂ (IZCAS-AR33980), LONGPU VILLAGe (28.53412°N, 98.451050°E, eLeV. 2873 M), CAWARONG TOWNSHIP, ZAYü, Tibet, China, 14 SePTeMBeR 2014, J. LIU LeG . Paratypes: 1♀ 1♂ (IZCAS-AR33981, 33982), SAMe DATA AS HOLOTYPe .

Etymology. THe SPeCIFIC NAMe IS DeRIVeD FROM THe PINYIN "LONGPU" AND ReFeRS TO ITS TYPe LOCALITY, LONGPU VILLAGe; ADjeCTIVe.

Diagnosis. THe MALeS ARe SIMILAR TO H. exilis BUT CAN eASILY Be DISTINGUISHeD FROM H. exilis BY THe PALP SHORTeR THAN THe TARSUS; THe TARSUS AS LONG AS THe TIBIA (TARSUS AS TWICe LONG AS THe TIBIA IN H. exilis), TWO BRANCHeS OF CONDUCTOR THAT DIFFeR IN LeNGTH BUT IN H. exilis, TWO BRANCHeS BeING OF THe SAMe LeNGTH (FIGS 9B, 17B); MeDIAN APOPHYSIS LONGeR THAN IT IN H. exilis (FIGS 9C, 17C). THe FeMALeS CAN Be eASILY DISTINGUISHeD FROM H. exilis BY POSTeRIOR ePIGYNAL SCLeRITe BROAD, THe HeIGHT OF IT IS ABOUT ½ THe HeIGHT OF ePIGYNe BUT IS TWICe AS ITS IN H. exilis (FIGS 10A, 18A); THe DISTANCe BeTWeeN SPeRMATHeCAe IS TWICe AS LONG AS THe DIAMeTeR OF SPeRMATHeCA WHILe IN H. exilis, THe DISTANCe IS SUBeqUAL TO THe DIAMeTeR (FIGS 10B, 18B).

EYe SIZeS AND INTeRDISTANCeS: AME 0.14, ALE 0.19, PME 0.16, PLE 0.17; AME–AME 0.15, AME–ALE 0.10, AME– PME 0.23, ALE–PLE 0, PME–PME 0.20, PME–PLE 0.24. LeG MeASUReMeNTS: I 11.79 (3.21, 4.24, 2.59, 1.75); II 11.47 (3.48, 3.75, 2.75, 1.49); III 10.16 (3.13, 3.39, 2.13, 1.51); IV 14.44 (3.85, 4.81, 3.75, 2.03). EPIGYNe: MIDDLe SePTUM LONG BUT NOT ReACHING THe POSTeRIOR eDGe OF ePIGYNe; ANTeRIOR ePIGYNAL SCLeRITe STRONG, WITH OBVIOUS WRINKLeS; THe HeIGHT OF IT IS LeSS THAN ½ OF THe ePIGYNAL HeIGHT; THe HeIGHT OF POSTeRIOR ePIGYNAL SCLeRITe ABOUT ½ THe ePIGYNAL HeIGHT WHILe IN THe MIDDLe OF POSTeRIOR ePIGYNAL SCLeRITe NARROW, ONLY ABOUT ¼ THe ePIGYNAL HeIGHT; ATRIUM slit-shaped; spermathecae separated, the width about ¾ the length, the distance between spermathecae 2½ the DIAMeTeR OF SPeRMATHeCA AT THe ANTeRIOR PART AND TWICe AS ITS AT THe POSTeRIOR PART; SPeRMATHeCAL HeADS SITUATeD ANTeROLATeRALLY; THe WIDTH ABOUT ¼ THe LeNGTH OF FeRTILIZATION DUCT (FIGS 18A–B).
