Diagnosis.
Pleopod 1 exopod with bilobed apex, and outer lobe twice as long as inner lobe, each lobe with one single spine.
Description.
Body length of males 6.0- 9.8 mm, of females 7.0- 9.5 mm. Color in alcohol blackish brown, dorsum granulated, bearing irregular white muscle spots (Fig. 6 C View Figure 6 ). Pereonite 1 sinuous on posterior margin of epimeron, postero-lateral corner acute. Noduli laterales as in Fig. 8 A View Figure 8 . Telson triangular, posterior half conspicuously narrowed towards blunted apex, lateral margin concave; uropod exopodite about twice as long as basipodite (Figs 6 C View Figure 6 , 8 A View Figure 8 ). — Cephalon with triangular median lobe, median lobe loner than lateral lobes (Figs 6 C View Figure 6 , 8 A View Figure 8 ). Antennula with several aesthetascs on distal tip of third article (most aesthetascs lost before dissection) (Fig. 8 B View Figure 8 ). Antennal flagellum with second segment nearly twice as long as first one (Fig. 8 C View Figure 8 ). — Pereopod 1 with brush of long setae on carpus and merus (Fig. 8 D View Figure 8 ). Pereopod 7 ischium with deep depression on rostral surface, carpus expanded on dorsal margin (Fig. 8 E View Figure 8 ). — Pleopods 1-5 exopods with Protracheoniscus - type pseudotrachea (Fig. 8 F-J View Figure 8 ). — MALE: pleopod 1 exopod bilobed at posterior tip, outer lobe twice as long as inner lobe, and each lobe with spine, endopod with broad basal part, narrowed towards apex, posterior tip beak-shaped and bent outwards (Fig. 8 F View Figure 8 ); pleopod 2 exopod with a line of setae on posterior part of outer margin, endopod styliform, nearly as long as exopod (Fig. 8 G View Figure 8 ).
Etymology.
The new species is named after its type locality Yunnan Province, and “ dian ” is the shortened form of this province of China.
Remarks.
The new species is very similar to L. isseli ( Arcangeli, 1927) in overall appearance and male pleopods, but it can be distinguished in having two setae at the distal apex of the male pleopod 1 exopod. Furthermore, the molecular data recognized both species as distinct taxonomic entities they can also be separated based on molecular analyses (Fig. 5 View Figure 5 ).
