One female (ECNU20140914/TT36) dissected.
Dimensions

Brief description
Female
, carapace long and smooth, with brown patches. In lateral view, anterior end wider than the posterior. In inner view, postero-ventral margin obviously sinuous. First segment of A1 without any dorsal setae. Seta S
p
on UR slender and hirsute distally.
Distribution
This species has been reported from
South Korea
(
Chang et al. 2012
) and
Germany
(
Nagler et al. 2014
). It is a new record for
China
.
Remarks
The length of our specimens (
1.10–1.30 mm
) is slightly longer than other specimens found from
South Korea
(
1.10–1.15 mm
) and
Germany
(
1.10–1.14 mm
) (
Chang et al. 2012
;
Nagler et al. 2014
). In our specimens, seta
d2
on L7 exceeds the middle of the next segment and seta
dp
reaches the end (
Figure 14b
); whereas in South Korean specimens, these two setae only reach the middle of the next segment (
Chang et al. 2012
).
