Type data. Philippines, from Murinae gen. sp. (“ Rattus sp. ”) .

Remarks. This species, described from a single specimen, is very close morphometrically to L. paulum , but differs from it in the presence of four longitudinal rows of very long barbs on scutal and dorsal idiosomal setae (long-barbed tetrapectinala) vs. three rows of short sparse barbs (short-barbed tripectinala).
