Notiocoelotes pseudolingulatus View in CoL sp. nov.

( Figs 10–11 View FIGURE 10 View FIGURE 11 and 16 View FIGURE 16 )

Type material: Holotype female ( IZCAS), 37 paratypes ( IZCAS), Mt. Limushan Nature Reserve (19.2ºN, 109.7ºE, Alt: 576m), Hainan Island, China, 13 August 2007, Shuqiang Li, Chunxia Wang, Linghui Lin and Jianjun Xu leg. GoogleMaps

Etymology: The specific name refers to its similarity to N. lingulatus .

Diagnosis: The new species is similar to N. lingulatus in having a short, square-shaped atrium and round spermathecae but can be distinguished by the diamond-shaped atrium scape and the semicircle-shaped copulatory ducts ( Figs 10–11 View FIGURE 10 View FIGURE 11 ).

Description. Female holotype: Total length 5.55. Prosoma 2.65 long, 1.75 wide; Opisthosoma 2.90 long, 2.00 wide. AME 0.05; ALE 0.13; PME 0.13; PLE 0.13; AME–AME 0.02; AME–ALE 0; ALE–PLE 0; PME– PME 0.09; PME–PLE 0.04. Both AME and PLE adjacent to ALE. Clypeus height 0.13. Leg formula: IV, I, II, III; leg measurements: I: 7.35 (2.00, 2.50, 1.75, 1.10); II: 6.05 (1.70, 2.00, 1.50, 0.85); III: 5.95 (1.65, 1.90, 1.60, 0.80); IV: 7.80 (2.15, 2.55, 2.20, 0.90). Chelicerae with three promarginal and two retromarginal teeth ( Fig. 10C View FIGURE 10 ). Epigynal teeth absent ( Figs 10A View FIGURE 10 , 11B View FIGURE 11 ); atrium small, elongated, with a diamond-shaped posterior extension ( Figs 10A View FIGURE 10 , 11B View FIGURE 11 ); copulatory ducts broad, originating anteriorly covering most of spermathecae ( Figs 10B View FIGURE 10 , 11C View FIGURE 11 ); spermathecae small, rounded, widely separated ( Figs 10B View FIGURE 10 , 11C View FIGURE 11 ); spermathecal heads extended anteriorly, with distinct stalks ( Figs 10B View FIGURE 10 , 11C View FIGURE 11 ).
