Differential diagnosis
Males of this new species are similar to the males of
Trilacuna angularis
Tong & Li, 2007
and
T. rastrum
Tong & Li, 2007
, but can be distinguished by the nine-teeth-rake like sclerite and the fork like sclerite of the embolus system (
Fig. 6E–H
). Males of
T. angularis
and
T. rastrum
both have a four-teeth-rake like sclerite but lack the fork like sclerite (
Tong & Li 2007
: figs 5–10, 15–18). Females of this new species are similar to the females of
Trilacuna rastrum
Tong & Li, 2007
, but can be separated by the wormshaped structure of the endogyne, which is not present in
T. rastrum
(
Tong & Li 2007
: fig. 6).
Etymology
The specific name is derived from the Chinese pinyin, 'jiuchi', which means 'nine teeth', referring to the nine-teeth-rake like sclerite of the male embolus system.
