SCUTUM ( Fig. 1A View FIGURE 1 ). Hexagonal, longer than wide, with 1 pair of ALs, 1 pair of PLs, and 2 pairs of usurped setae (dorsal idiosomal setae situated on the scutum as a result of its expansion in the posterior direction), widest between PLs and anterior pair of usurped setae, posterior scutal margin almost straight; anterior usurped setae situated far from lateral scutal margins, posterior usurped setae situated in posterior scutal angles, distance between anterior usurped setae about same as distance between posterior usurped setae; PLs slightly longer than ALs; ALs and PLs thicker than usurped setae; sensilla fusiform, covered with spikes; sensillum bases situated closer to level of ALs than to level of PLs; scutal puncta of two types: sparse large and dense small.

Type material examined ( Fig. 4 View FIGURE 4 ). Lectotype (here designated): larva ZMMU Tdt-3223 (specimen 1) ex R. tanezumi No 42018, Vietnam, Quang Tri Province, Vinh Linh, 18 August 1956, coll. I.M. Grochovskaja. Paralectotypes: two larvae, ZMMU Tdt-3224 (specimen 1) and ZMMU Tdt-3225 (specimen 4), same collection data as for lectotype; one larva ZMMU Tdt-3226 (specimen 4) ex unknown host, Vietnam, Nghe An Province, Phu Quy, 9 September 1956, coll. I.M. Grochovskaja; one larva ZMMU Tdt-3227 (specimen 1) ex L. edwardsi (labeled as Rattus edwardsi camphaensis ), Vietnam, Quang Ninh Province, Ha Lam, 1 February 1956, coll. I.M. Grochovskaja; one larva ZMMU Tdt-3228 (specimen 3) ex “tupaia”, Vietnam, Quang Ninh Province, Cam Pha, 2 March 1956, coll. I.M. Grochovskaja.
Remarks. According to the original description, in this species “all scutal surface with small puncta” ( Schluger et al. 1960c); thus, Schluger did not recognize two types of scutal puncta in G. mirabilis , obviously due to insufficiently precise optics. However, she described such punctation in G. tenella Traub and Morrow, 1955 , where this trait is more distinct ( Schluger et al. 1960c, Fig. 63).
Gahrliepia mirabilis is similar to G. yangchenensis Chen and Hsu, 1957 and differs from the latter by the presence of nude ventral palpal tibial seta vs. having slender branches; the presence of two types of scutal puncta vs. one type (however, the original description of G. yangchenensis could be inexact in this point); and by a slightly larger scutum (AW = 49–56 vs. 42–51, PW = 70–86 vs. 67–79, ASB = 21–30 vs. 19, and PSB = 112–126 vs. 109) ( Chen & Hsu 1957; Li et al. 1997). Gahrliepia mirabilis is also similar to G. eurypunctata Jeu, Yu and Wan, 1983 and differs from it by the presence of nude palpal genual and ventral palpal tibial setae (fPp = B/N/NNN vs. B/B/ NNB), slightly smaller scutum (PW = 70–86 vs. 86–90, PSB = 112–126 vs. 136–141, SD = 134–155 vs. 161–170, AP = 40–45 vs. 46–51), and much shorter scutal setae (AL = 28–36 vs. 45–53 and PL = 32–38 vs. 52–54) ( Jeu et al. 1983).
