Type material. Holotype: ♂ (MHBU-ARA-00025265), CHINA: Yunnan Province, Tengchong City, Xinhua Village, 24.2490°N, 98.1126°E, 2089 m elev., 13 April 2023, leg. W. Wang.

Paratypes: 1♂ 1♀ (MHBU-ARA-00025241), same data as holotype .

Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from the memorable Dianmian Road (also known as the Burma Road) during World War II, which passed through the type locality and contributed greatly to the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. Noun in apposition.

Diagnosis. Males can be easily distinguished from Z. cooki by the presence of TB, and from Z. xuyei (Lin & Li, 2020) by lacking the peculiar spur bump on the dorsal cymbium. Female differs from Z. cooki by the coloration of abdomen, and from Z. xuyei by the relative position of epigynal window and spermathecae (completely overlapped in Z. xuyei, but nearly half of spermathecae not overlapped with epigynal window in Z. dianmian sp. nov.).
