FIGURE 22. Vitronura setaebarbulata Gao et al. , 2012 , Tubercles and chaetotaxy of Abd. IV (100µm). Etymology. Named after type locality: Hunan Province . Remarks. The new species has O-chaeta on cephalic tubercle Fr and 7 teeth on mandible. It is close to L. montana Deharveng & Weiner, 1984 , L. paraminuta Deharveng & Weiner, 1984 and L. nanjingensis Ma & Chen, 2008 . However, L. hunanensis sp. nov. can be well distinguished from L. montana and L. paraminuta by having 4 (3+s) chaetae on tubercle De of Abd. I–III and by O-chaeta on head growing from the normal position. The latter one has 3 (2+s) chaetae on tubercle De of Abd. I–III and the O-chaeta on head is replaced so forward that it seems to be insert on the tubercles An. The new species is different from L. nanjingensis Ma and Chen, 2008 by the body chaetae and the mandible: in L. hunanensis sp. nov. , labral chaetae as 0/2, 2; ventral tube with 4+4 chaetae; sgd of Ant. III organ is at the same level to the two small rods and not displaced backward to Ant. IV; mandible with a rounded teeth. In L. nanjingensis , labral chaetae as 4/3, 2; ventral tube with 5+5 chaetae; sgd of Ant. III organ is displaced backward to Ant. IV; mandible without a rounded teeth.
