Yan Li . 3 ♂ , Helan Mountain , Shuimogouzhenggou , 5. VIII. 2010 , Coll. Lihua Wang. Distribution . China ( Inner Mongolia ). Remarks . The new species is somewhat similar to L. divitata Nartshuk , but can be separated from the latter by the following features: legs brown except for yellow coxae, trochanters, distal tips of femora, basal parts of tibiae, mid and hind tarsi and brown mid and hind tarsomeres 5; surstylus short, 0.2x as high as epandrium in lateral view. In L. divitata , legs are yellow except for fore and hind femora and tibiae with black macules, tarsi blackish; surstylus is long, 0.3x as high as epandrium in lateral view ( Nartshuk 2006 ). Etymology . The specific name is from the Latin nigr– (“black”) and lineatus (“linear”), referring to the black and linear medial sulcus of the ocellar triangle; a feminine adjective.
