Type material.
Holotype ♂: China: Hunan: Longshan County: Guitangba Town: Wulongshan Park, Feihu Cave,
N29.21000°
,
E109.30569°
, 436 m, 13.I.2014, Y. Li and J. Liu leg. Paratypes: 2♀2♂, same data as holotype.
Etymology.
The specific name is derived from the type locality; adjective.
Diagnosis.
The male can be distinguished from
Papiliocoelotes yezhouensis
sp. n. by the dorsally curved patellar apophysis, the apically rounded retroventral tibial apophysis, the large tegular apophysis with pointed tip and the conductor with 2 pointed distal processes (Fig. 5
A-C
). The female can be distinguished from
Papiliocoelotes yezhouensis
sp. n. by the small and shallow epigynal hoods, and the width of the copulatory ducts is slightly wider than the spermathecae (Fig. 6
A-B
).

Description.
Male (holotype): Total length 6.05. Carapace 3.25 long, 2.20 wide. Abdomen 2.85 long, 1.75 wide. Eye sizes and interdistances: AME 0.11, ALE 0.14, PME 0.14, PLE 0.15; AME-AME 0.05, AME-ALE 0.02, ALE-PLE 0.03, PME-PME 0.06, PME-PLE 0.08. Leg measurements: I: 11.55 (2.85, 4.00, 2.70, 2.00); II: 10.30 (2.80, 3.25, 2.50, 1.75); III: 8.95 (2.60, 3.00, 2.25, 1.10); IV: 13.05 (3.25, 4.00, 3.80, 2.00). Chelicerae with 1 promarginal tooth. Palp: patellar apophysis long, curved dorsally, with pointed tip; patellar condyle short; retroventral tibial apophysis rounded apically; cymbial furrow broad, about 2/5 length of the cymbium; conductor wide, with 2 pointed distal processes; tegular apophysis elongate with pointed tip, subequal to the length of the cymbial furrow (Fig. 5
A-C
).
Female (one of paratypes): Total length 5.85. Carapace 2.75 long, 1.80 wide. Abdomen 3.15 long, 2.25 wide. Eye sizes and interdistances: AME 0.11, ALE 0.13, PME 0.13, PLE 0.14; AME-AME 0.04, AME-ALE 0.03, ALE-PLE 0.03, PME-PME 0.05, PME-PLE 0.08. Leg measurements: I: 9.15 (2.50, 3.05, 2.15, 1.45); II: 7.95 (2.20, 2.50, 1.95, 1.30); III: 7.75 (2.05, 2.45, 1.95, 1.30); IV: 10.30 (2.70, 3.25, 2.90, 1.45). Chelicerae with 3 promarginal teeth. Epigyne: copulatory openings located centrally; epigynal hoods small, located mediolaterally, sulci small and shallow; copulatory ducts roll into a ball; the width of copulatory ducts slightly wider than the spermathecae (Fig. 6
A-B
).
