Type material. Holotype 3 (SCAU, No. 120770), CHINA: Shennongjia, Hubei, 31˚49’N, 109˚41’E, 1900 m, 1–3.viii.2005, HW Chen. Paratypes: CHINA: 33 (SCAU, Nos 120771 -73), same data as holotype.

Distribution. China (Hubei).

Etymology. A combination of the Latin word tentaculum (= fine processus) and the Greek word ferein (= to bear), referring to the aedeagus with tentacle-like setae apically.
