The male of O. limushan resembles O. jianfengling in having similar median plate, but the male can be distinguished from it by: 1) shorter and thinner embolus; 2) hilt-like tegular apophysis; 3) thinner RTA ; 4) smaller FA . This new species also resembles O. florifera sp. nov. in having a similar RTA , but can be separated from the latter by: 1) thicker and straight copulatory ducts, 2) broader median plate, 3) thinner RTA , and 4) no body stripes. © Zoological Systematics , 40(4): 436–450 Figs 38–45.

Femur I with five prolateral spines and femur II with three prolateral spines; tibia I with eight pairs of ventral spines, tibia II with eight pairs of ventral spines; metatarsus I with four pairs of ventral spines, metatarsus II with four pairs of ventral spines. Abdomen dark dorsally. Other characters as in male. Epigyne ( Figs 36–37 , 44–45 , 50–51 ). The margin of median plate extending parallelly and longitudinally. Copulatory openings small, situated medially on epigyne, located in the shallow concavities anteriorly ( Figs 36 , 44 , 50 ). Vulva anteriorly with a pair of large, transparent kidney-shaped bursae, posteriorly with a pair of spermathecae connecting with lightly curved copulatory duct, glandular appendage much shorter than fertilization duct. Distribution. China ( Hainan ). Note. Otacilia limushan was originally described by Fu, Zhang & Zhu (2010) on the basis of a female holotype collected from Mt. Limu, Hainan Province , China . While examining the Otacilia specimens collected from Mt. Limu in 2015, we easily identified the female as O. limushan according to the original description, and considered that the male specimen also belongs to the same species because the habitus and the marking are very similar to those of the female. Therefore the male O. limushan is reported for the first time.
