Type material of Asceua longji (examined). Holotype ♀ (coll. no. La1), CHINA : Hainan Island , Chengmai , Laocheng , Longji Hills , 24.IV.2012 , leg. A. T . Barrion et al . ; Paratype : 1 ♀ (coll. no. So99), Panja Town, Shuiku Village, Songtao Reservoir , 2.IV.2011 , leg. A. T . Barrion et al . Description and diagnosis. See Barrion et al. (2013) for the description of the female; the male remains unknown. The holotype female habitus and epigynal morphology are presented in Figs 18 and 17 , respectively. The female of A. longji is similar to A. quadrimaculata Zhang, Zhang & Jia, 2012 by the presence of a central epigynal hood. However, it can be distinguished from A. quadrimaculata by the white pattern terminally on the opisthosoma ( vs. absent in A. quadrimaculata , Zhang et al. 2012 : fig. 1), the copulatory openings clearly separated from the epigynal hood ( vs. copulatory openings and epigynal hood close together in A. quadrimaculata , Zhang et al. 2012 : fig. 5), and the spermathecae oval in shape ( vs. spermathecae spherical in A. quadrimaculata , Zhang et al. 2012 : fig. 5). Distribution. China ( Hainan ).
