Type material.

Holotype ♀: China: Yunnan Province: Tengchong County, Mangbang Village, N24°58'07", E98°36'48", 2032 m, 23.VI.2013, Z. Zhao and J. Liu.

Etymology.

The specific name refers to the type locality; adjective.

Diagnosis.

The female is similar to that of Sinocoelotes hehuaensis sp. n., but can be distinguished from it by longer epigynal teeth (twice as long as in Sinocoelotes hehuaensis sp. n.), the broader copulatory ducts, which the posterior part separated from each other further, the slender, laterally and ventrally located spermathecal heads (dorsally situated in Sinocoelotes hehuaensis sp. n.) (cf. Figs 14 A–B and 8 A–B).

Description.

Female. Total length 10.12. Carapace 4.94 long, 3.66 wide. Abdomen 5.18 long, 3.10 wide. Eye sizes and interdistances: AME 0.21, ALE 0.29, PME 0.20, PLE 0.24; AME-AME 0.11, AME-ALE 0.05, PME-PME 0.16, PME-PLE 0.28. Leg measurements: I 14.58 (3.96, 4.95, 3.52, 2.15); II 12.81 (3.68, 4.28, 2.97, 1.88); III 11.67 (3.40, 3.72, 2.95, 1.60); IV 13.34 (4.25, 4.98, 4.22, 1.89). Sternum brown (in comparison to previous species) with light median stripe. Chelicerae with four retromarginal teeth. Epigyne: atrium small, about 1/5 of epigynal plate square, narrowing at posteriorly; teeth subtriangular, as wide as long, located laterally, near to atrial anterior margin, subequal to atrial width (narrowest part); spermathecae not spaced, posterior part thinner than posterior one; spermathecal heads long, finger-like, located laterally; copulatory ducts broad, well sclerotized, and anterior part contiguous (Fig. 14 A–B).
