Formulae of leg setation and solenidia: I (1- 5-2-4-20) [1-2-2], II (1-5-2-4-13) [1-1-2], III (2-3-1-3- 13) [1-1-0], IV (1-2-2-3-10) [0-1-0]; homology of setae and solenidia indicated in Table 2 . Many setae slightly barbed. Tibiae II with anterio-ventral projection, having fusiform seta v” . Setae p on tarsi II – IV absent. Famulus minute. Solenidia ω 2 on tarsi I and φ 1 on tibiae I setiform; others solenidia thickened, blunt-ended. Solenidia of genua pressed to segments, curved. Material examined — Holotype (male) and two paratypes (male and female) were obtained from southern Vietnam , 11°25’ N , 107°25’ E , 149 m above sea level , in dark loamy soil of Lagerstroemia forest, February-March 2009, collected by A.E. Anichkin. Type deposition — The holotype is deposited in the collection of the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences , St. Petersburg , Russia ; one paratype is deposited in the collection of Siberian Zoological Museum , Novosibirsk , Russia ; one paratype is in the personal collection of the first author. Etymology — The name " microseta " refers to the very short interlamellar setae. Distribution — At present, this species is only known from Cat Tien National Park of southern Vietnam .

See Table 1 for explanation. Remarks — Lineoppia microseta n. sp. is similar in having a lineate anogenital region to Lineoppia frouini Balogh and Balogh, 1983 from New Caledonia . The anogenital region is not lineate in the other known species of the genus Lineoppia mastax ( Balogh and Mahunka, 1977 ) from Neotropical region and Lineoppia tuberosa ( Mahunka, 2009 ) from Madagascar ). The new species differs from Lineoppia frouini by the smaller body length ( 180- 200 in new species; 287 in Lineoppia frouini ), very short costular lines (costular lines longer in Lineoppia frouini ), the morphology of interlamellar setae (minute in the new species; absent, only alveoli present, in Lineoppia frouini ), absence of integumental lines on notogaster (lines well-developed in Lineoppia frouini ), position of notogastral setae la and lm (on one horizontal line in new species; la considerably anterior to lm in Lineoppia frouini ), position of lyrifissures iad (direct apoanal in new species; inverse apoanal in Lineoppia frouini ), position of apodemes 4 (straight in new species; inclined in Lineoppia frouini ).
