Figures 34 , 59 Type material. Holotype : ♀ (IZCAS-Ar41985), China, Yunnan, Lijiang, Ninglang Yi Autonomous County, Lugu Lake, Nvshen Cave, 27.62°N , 100.81°E , ca. 3540 m, 5.VII.2010, Q. Zhao leg. Etymology. The specific name is a noun in apposition taken from the type locality. Diagnosis. Pimoa ninglang sp. nov. resembles those of P. clavata (see Xu and Li 2007 : 487, figs 30-34) and P. gandhii (see Hormiga 1994a : 60, figs 224-231) but can be distinguished from P. clavata by the narrow dorsal plate (Fig. 34B ) (vs. wider) and from P. gandhii by the trapezoidal ventral plate (Fig. 34A ) (vs. triangular) and the fusiform dorsal plate (Fig. 34B ) (vs. tongue-shaped).
