( Figs 45–46 , 49C–D ) Etymology. The species is named after Zhu Wu, a character in the classic Chinese novel Outlaws of the Marsh ; noun in apposition. Diagnosis. The male of the new species can be distinguished from all other congeners by the mesal branch of the tegular apophysis greatly extended and a large semicircular anterior outgrowth on the tegular apophysis, width about 1/3 of the bulb width in retrolateral view. Females of O. zhuwu Lin & Li , sp. nov. are similar to O. chenae Lin & Li, 2020 by having the same shaped epigyne. However, O. zhuwu Lin & Li , sp. nov. can be distinguished by the slit like copulatory openings located medially, longitudinal ( vs. copulatory openings broad, located posteriorly, transverse).
