Distribution . China ( Gansu , Ningxia , Xinjiang ). Remarks . Paratullbergia qilianensis is the largest Tullbergiidae species found in China till now which may reach 1.16 mm in length. It has fairly robust habitus and coarse body granulations. The body lengths of 24 adult specimens from Xinjiang are 0.75–1.05 mm . The morphology of most specimens from Xinjiang is as same as types . There is only one minor variation observed in 11 specimens from Harturege Park: seta p4 on Abd. V as microseta (15–17 μm) and in medial position vs. as macroseta (42–45 μm) and distinctly in anterior position in the types (see Bu & Gao, 2019b , Fig. 5 ). All collected sites of Tullbergiidae from Xinjiang Province in above are shown in Fig. 42 . Six species of Tullbergiidae from Xinjiang Province can be separated by the following key.
