Indonemoura maoershana Mo, Wang, Yang & Li, 2020: 396 .

Female ( Fig. 1 ). Sternum 7 membranous, two dark sclerites belonging to inner genitalia can be seen by transparency. Sternum 8 with large trapezoidal, darkly sclerotized subgenital plate covering the entire length; posterior margin slightly concave, overlapping the anterior margin of sternum 9. Paired vaginal lobes are brown and triangular, located at the posterolateral corner of the subgenital plate. Sternum 9 slightly extended anteromedially, paraproct short triangular.

Material examined. 1 male ( COI NO. C37) and 1 female ( COI NO. C38) ( HIST), China: Guangxi, Guilin City, Xing’an County, Tongren Village , Maoershan National Natural Reserve , Jiuniutang , 25°52'16" N, 110°25'1" E, 1961–2000 m, 2020. VI.22, Mo RR, Lai Y et al.; 1 female ( HIST), same data as above, 2020. VI.21.

Distribution. China (Guangxi).

Remarks. This species is a member of the Indonemoura fujianensis complex, according to the male genital characters ( Mo et al. 2020j; Sivec & Stark 2010b). The hitherto unknown female was associated with the male by molecular study. The female has a large trapezoidal subgenital plate which is a common shape in the genus, and it cannot be distinguished from some congeners with certainty.
