(光滑Dzḇü) Fig. 3 Type material. Holotype ♂ (CQCK-18-03): CHINA : Chongqing City , Chengkou County , Longtian Town , Wuli village ( 32°04.269′N , 108°39.914′E , 1286 m ), 16 Mar. 2018 , leg. Luyu Wang. Paratypes : 11♂ 16♀ , with same data as holotype; CHINA : 6♂ 1♀ (CQCK-18-02), Chongqing City , Chengkou County , Longtian Town , Wuli village , hillside behind primary school ( 32°03.726′N , 108°40.351′E , 1206 m ), 16 Mar. 2018 , leg. Zhisheng Zhang. Etymology. This specific name is derived from the Latin word “lubricus”, meaning smooth, referring to the smooth glossy texture of the carapace; adjective. Diagnosis. This new species resembles O. fabiformis Liu et al. , 2019 , but the males can be distinguished from it by the long and transverse embolus ( vs shorter and directed distally), the long and thin conductor ( vs triangular), and the wide RTA and long DTA ( vs thin RTA and DTA) (compare Fig. 3C–F with fig. 6B–E in Liu et al. 2019 ). Females differ from O. fabiformis by the globular glandular appendage ( vs absent) and the large and globular spermathecae ( vs small) (compare Fig. 3G–H with fig. 7B–C in Liu et al. 2019 ).
