Type material.
Holotype
♂ (IZCAS): China: Tibet:
Zayue
: Zhowagoin Township, Sangjiu Village, Mingqi group, 16 km SE of Yakou,
N28.72276°
,
E97.70598°
, 3698 m, 1.IX.2014, Jincheng Liu leg.
Paratypes
: 3♂♂, 3♀♀ (IZCAS): same data as holotype; 3♂♂ (IZCAS): China: Tibet:
Zayue
: Zhowagoin Township, Xiongjiu Village,
N28.60677°
,
E97.28166°
, 1938 m, 29.VIII.2014, Jincheng Liu leg.
Etymology.
The specific name refers to the type locality, Sangjiu Village; adjective.
Diagnosis.
The males can be easily distinguished from other
Sinodraconarius
gen. n. species by the patellar apophysis longer than the tibia
vs.
shorter than the tibia in other species (Fig.
1A-C
). The females can be easy distinguished from other
Sinodraconarius
gen. n. species by the epigynal hoods in the center of the epigynal plate
vs.
anterolaterally in other species (Fig.
2A-B
).
