Holotype : male, China : Dongchuan , Yunnan Province , 2 Aug. 2006 . 1940m, collected by Ou X-H. Remarks. This new species is allied to Conanalus robustus sp. nov. , but it is different from the latter in: apex of tenth abdominal tergite of male with a pair of short valvate-shaped processes in dorsal view; cerci comparatively long, slightly curved, apex faintly extended, with a middle and a basal inner spines.
