Diagnosis The male of Phintella fanjingshan Li, Wang, Zhang & Chen, 2019 resembles that of P. pulcherrima Huang, Wang & Peng, 2015 in having a similar habitus and a small lamellar process, but differs in: (1) the RTA is acutely narrowed distally in retrolateral view ( Fig.13B ), whereas tapered in P. pulcherrima ( Huang et al. 2015 : figs 8b, 10b); (2) the embolus is almost as long as the lamellar process ( Fig. 13A ), whereas about 1.5 times as short as the lamellar process in P. pulcherrima ( Huang et al. 2015 : figs 8a, 10a). The female is similar to that of P. jiugongensis sp. nov. , but can be distinguished by the following: (1) the copulatory ducts are about one-third the spermathecal width and slightly curved medially ( Fig. 14B ), whereas about one-forth the spermathecal width, and strongly curved more than 90° in P. jiugongensis ( Fig. 18B ); (2) the epigyne has a pair of eyebrow-shaped atrial ridges anterior to the copulatory openings ( Fig. 14A ), whereas arc-shaped and anteriorly between the copulatory openings in P. jiugongensis ( Fig. 18A ).
