Type
material.
Holotype ♂: China: Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region: Baise City: Napo County, Yongning Village, Jinlongyan Cave,
N23°21'16"
,
E105°51'01"
, elevation: 826 m, 22.XII.2012, Z.G. Chen and Z. Zhao leg. Paratypes: 2♀3♂, same data as holotype.
Etymology.
The specific name refers to the type locality; adjective.
Diagnosis.
The male can be distinguished from
Flexicoelotes jiaohanyanensis
sp. n. by the large dorsal conductor apophysis, the short, thin anterior apophysis, the short patellar apophysis, the complex and light-colored conductor, and the long, broad cymbial furrow (Fig. 4
A-C
). The female can be distinguished from
Flexicoelotes jiaohanyanensis
sp. n. and
Flexicoelotes huyunensis
sp. n. by the narrow posterior part of atrium and the unique shape of the copulatory ducts (Fig. 5
A-B
).

Description.
Male (holotype): Total length 6.85. Carapace 3.55 long, 2.55 wide. Abdomen 3.30 long, 2.05 wide. Eye sizes and interdistances: AME 0.13, ALE 0.17, PME 0.17, PLE 0.19; AME-AME 0.06, AME-ALE 0.02, PME-PME 0.06, PME-PLE 0.07. Leg measurements: I: 14.35 (3.80, 4.70, 3.65, 2.20); II: 13.22 (3.52, 4.20, 3.35, 2.15); III: 12.29 (3.25, 3.68, 3.52, 1.84); IV: 16.20 (4.15, 4.85, 4.90, 2.30). Palp: patellar apophysis short; RTA with pointed tip, extending slightly beyond distal margin of tibia; LTA short, about 1/5 length of RTA; cymbial furrow long, about 1/2 length of cymbium; conductor broad, with bent apex; dorsal conductor apophysis large; median apophysis small, spoon-like; anterior apophysis short, apex is thinner than basal part; embolus filiform, beginning at 6
o'clock
position (Fig. 4
A-C
).
Female (one of paratypes): Total length 8.15. Carapace 3.55 long, 2.50 wide. Abdomen 4.60 long, 2.95 wide. Eye sizes and interdistances: AME 0.13, ALE 0.18, PME 0.18, PLE 0.17; AME-AME 0.09, AME-ALE 0.04, PME-PME 0.10, PME-PLE 0.11. Leg measurements: I: 12.44 (3.27, 4.23, 2.95, 1.99); II: 11.16 (3.08, 3.64, 2.68, 1.76); III: 10.48 (2.88, 3.28, 2.76, 1.56); IV: 13.38 (3.68, 4.25, 3.75, 1.70). Epigyne: atrium large, occupying 1/2 of epigynal plate; teeth long, located in atrial anterior
margin
, about 3/4 of atrial height; hoods absent; spermathecae simple, located posteriorly, covered mostly by copulatory ducts; copulatory ducts broad, occupying 3/4 of epigynal plate (Fig. 5
A-B
).
