C o m m e n t: The subgeneric affiliations of this recently described species were previously doubtful. Based on the secondary sexual characters (shape and chaetotaxy of tergite and sternite VIII in both sexes), the morphology of the aedeagus (shape and arrangement of internal structures; shape of paramere), as well as the shape of spermatheca (proximal portion of capsule short; distal portion oval and with deep cuticular intrusion), L. armatissima is attributed to the subgenus Yunnaleptusa ASSING 2008 .
