Tibiotarsi of legs I, II and III with 20 (11, 8, 1), 20 (11, 8, 1) and 19 (11, 7, 1) chaetae, respectively ( Figs 8 & 9 ). Unguis without teeth. Unguiculus slender and pointed, as long as inner edge of unguis, without inner basal lamella ( Figs 8 & 9 ). Ventral tube with 8+8 distal chaetae and 3–4+3–4 basal chaetae, without anterior chaetae ( Fig. 11 ). Furca reduced to a finely granulated area with 2+1 chaetae posteriorly and further two manubrial rows of chaetae present ( Fig. 14 ). Female genital plate with 15–21 chaetae ( Fig. 13 ), male genital plate with 24–28 chaetae. Male ventral organ present, being as 7+7 inflated chaetae on ventral tube and several on Abd.

Anal spines present on indistinct papillae, as long as inner edge of unguis ( Fig. 16 ). Etymology. Named for the name of the park where we found the new species. Ecology. The new species found in a coniferous and broad-leaved mixed forest. FIGURES 1–9. Dimorphaphorura jingyueensis sp. nov. 1, dorsal chaetotaxy; 2, ventral side of Abd. II–VI (male); 3, labium; 4, PAO and anterior cephalic pso; 5, labrum; 6, maxillary palp; 7, Ant. III sensory organ; 8, distal part of leg I; 9, distal part of leg III. Scales: 0.1 mm (1–2), 0.01 mm (3–9). FIGURES 10–16. Dimorphaphorura jingyueensis sp. nov. 10, ventral side of head; 11, ventral tube (female); 12, ventral tube (male); 13, female genital plate; 14, central part of Abd. IV sternum (female); 15, anal valves; 16, dorsal part of Abd. IV–VI. Scales: 0.1 mm (10, 13 & 16), 0.01 mm (11–12, 14–15). Remarks. The new species is similar to Dimorphaphorura pseudoraxensis ( Nosek & Christian, 1983 ) in having 1+1, 3+3, and 3+3 pso on Th. I–III, respectively. Yet both can be distinguished by the number of pso on Abd. IV–V (5+5, 3+ 3 in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus 4+4, 4+ 4 in D. pseudoraxensis , respectively), the ratio of unguiculus/unguis ( 1 in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus 0.8 in D. pseudoraxensis ), the inner basal lamella of unguiculus (indistinct in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus distinct in D. pseudoraxensis ), the number of chaetae in distal whorl of tibiotarsi ( 11 in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus 9 in D. pseudoraxensis ) and the apical teeth on the mandible (4+ 4 in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus 4+ 3 in D. pseudoraxensis ). D. jingyueensis sp. nov. is very different from the only other known Chinese congener, D. sanjiangensis Sun & Wu, 2012 . They can easily be separated by the dorsal pso formula (32/133/ 33353 in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus 32/033/ 33343 in D. sanjiangensis ), the ventral psx formula (00/000/ 212101 in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus 00/ 000/ 122203 in D. sanjiangensis ), the inner basal lamella of unguiculus (indistinct in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus distinct in D. sanjiangensis ), the ratio of unguiculus/unguis ( 1 in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus 0.7 in D. sanjiangensis ) and the chaetae on the upper valves (a0, 2b1, 2b2, c0, 2c1, 2c 2 in D. jingyueensis sp. nov. versus a0, 2a1, b0, 2b1, 2b2, c0, 2c1, 2c 2 in D. sanjiangensis ).
