Central area of GL with two sets of curved internal tubes.</p><p>Males unknown.</p><p>Differential diagnosis.</p><p>Meisch et al. (2024) listed 40 extant species of Stenocypris . Most of these species have long swimming setae that extend at least to the bases of the terminal claws, which offers easy distinction from our new species. The following five species are known to have short swimming setae on the A 2 that extend to approx. the midway of the penultimate segment or are shorter: Stenocypris hirutai, Stenocypris ilyophila Klie, 1932, Stenocypris intermedia Klie, 1932, Stenocypris trapezoides Klie, 1932, and Stenocypris tsukagoshii Smith &amp; Kamiya, 2006 . Stenocypris hirutai can be distinguished from the new species by its straight, inclined postero-dorsal margin, the absence of a ventral groove on the CIL of the LV (only the inner list is present), and the wide posterior CIL (fig. 2 of Smith and Kamiya 2006 and Figs 3 B, 7 A, 7 B herein). The posterior part of the LV of S. ilyophila (fig. 56 of Klie 1932) is lower than that of the new species (Fig. 2 C, F) in lateral view. In dorsal / ventral view, the greatest width of its carapace is situated in the middle (Klie 1932: fig. 57), while being in the posterior area in the new species (Fig. 2 E, G – I; Suppl. material 6: fig. 2 B). Stenocypris intermedia was not illustrated in the original description (Klie 1932), but Petkovski and Meisch (1996) synonymized S. malcolmsoni lata Ghetti, 1972 with S. intermedia . Based on Ghetti’s (1972) illustrations, this species is very similar to Stenocypris menghaiensis sp. nov. in valve outline, and it has a similar narrow posterior CIL (Ghetti 1972: tav. 6 d). The greatest width of the carapace of S. malcolmsoni lata is situated near the middle (Ghetti 1972: tav. 6 a, g). The asymmetrical septa in the antero-ventral part of the two valves (Ghetti 1972: tav. 6 a) are not seen in our new species (Suppl. material 6: fig. 2 B). Additionally, the cavities between the septa of S. malcolmsoni lata do not branch into radial pore canals (Ghetti 1972: tav. 6 i) as in the new species (Fig. 4 A), although this could be an artifact of the drawing by Ghetti (1972). The limb chaetotaxy of S. malcolmsoni lata was incompletely illustrated in Ghetti (1972), which obstructs a more comprehensive comparison with the present species. Stenocypris trapezoides has a sub-trapezoidal outline (Klie 1932: fig. 61), which easily distinguishes it from the new species. Stenocypris tsukagoshii has a more elongate valve outline (Smith and Kamiya 2006: fig. 2 j – l) and the carapace is less inflated in dorsal view (Smith and Kamiya 2006: fig. 2 m). Its posterior CIL extends far beyond the septa (Smith and Kamiya 2006: fig. 8 a, b).</p><p>The lengths of swimming setae of the following species are not known: Stenocypris curvirami Lowndes, 1932, Stenocypris exsiccata (Vávra, 1897), and Stenocypris fontinalis (Vávra, 1895) . Nonetheless, they can be distinguished from the present new species by their size and other morphological details: both S. curvirami and S. exsiccata are&gt; 2 mm in length, much larger than the new species (&lt;1.5 mm, Table 2). In addition, the valve surface of S. curvirami is densely striated (Lowndes 1932: pl. I fig. 2), which differs from the polygonal pattern in the new species (Fig. 2 J). The dorsal valve margin of S. exsiccata is much more arched, and the posterior margin is much steeper (Vávra 1897: fig. 5.1) compared with the new species (Fig. 2). Stenocypris fontinalis is also larger than the new species (1.7 mm) and is more elongate both in lateral and dorsal views (Vávra 1895: fig. 5).</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>Named after Menghai County, where the holotype was collected.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/89FD5162DA645BE1BE894CDE527BB3D6	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

RV L 2018 μm, H / L 0.383. LV ~ 40 μm longer than RV (Table 2).</p><p>Brief description.</p><p>Carapace large. Dorsal margin slightly curved, sloping down from maximum height located posterior of mid-length. Anterior margin narrow and relatively tightly curved. Posterior margin tightly curved, more so than anterior margin, apex below mid-height. Ventral margin slightly concave. Outer surface of valves covered with faint polygons (~ 20–40 μm across) and tightly packed striations (~ 1 μm apart and continuing across borders of polygons). CIL wide anteriorly, narrow posteriorly. Left valve with well-developed groove running along ventral part of CIL, transforming into inner lists at each end, reaching halfway up posterior margin and near top of anterior margin. Natatory setae of A 2 reaching slightly beyond tips of claws (Table 3).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>This species is similar to S. major with its large size, an inner list accompanied by a distinct groove on the LV running along the anterior CIL almost up to the hinge area, and fine striations on the carapace (see Triebel 1953; Moonchaisook and Savatenalinton 2020). However, both the anterior and posterior margins are more tightly curved, and the apex of the posterior margin is lower compared to S. major, suggesting that it is not conspecific. As only one specimen was recovered, it is left in open nomenclature.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/42E8FDD5055B5C57BC4C8753C4C42720	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
