Types. Holotype: ♀ ( HNNU), PIANMA YAKOU (25.966667°N, 98.683333°E, eLeV. 3200 M), PASS OVeR GAOLIGONGSHAN, NUjIANG PReFeCTURe, Yunnan, China, 11 OCTOBeR 1998, C. GRISWOLD, D. KAVANAUGH, C. LONG LeG GoogleMaps . Paratypes: 5♀♀ ( HNNU and CAS), same data as holotype GoogleMaps ; 1♀ ( CAS), Nujiang State Nature Reserve, No. 12 BRIDGe CAMP AReA (27.715000°N, 98.502000°E, eLeV. 2775 M), 16.3 AIR KM W OF GONGSHAN, NUjIANG PReFeCTURe, GAOLIGONG SHAN, Yunnan, China, 15–19 JULY 2000, H.

Diagnosis. MALeS OF THIS SPeCIeS CAN Be DISTINGUISHeD FROM N. brevipatellatus Z. ZHAO & S. LI sp. n. BY THe LONG PATeLLAR APOPHYSIS, AS LONG AS THe PATeLLA, WHILe THe PATeLLAR APOPHYSIS OBVIOUSLY SHORT IN N. brevipatellatus Z. ZhaO & S. LI ( FIGS 1C View FIGURE 1 , 3C View FIGURE 3 ), A SHORT CYMBIAL FURROW, ABOUT ½ THe LeNGTH OF CYMBIUM, WHILe IT IS ABOUT ⅓ IN N. brevipatellatus Z. ZhaO & S. LI sp. n ( FIGS 1C View FIGURE 1 , 3C View FIGURE 3 ). FeMALeS OF THIS SPeCIeS CAN Be DISTINGUISHeD FROM N. brevipatellatus Z. ZhaO & S. LI sp. n. BY THe SPeRMATHeCAL HeADS WHOSe HeIGHT IS LONGTeR THAN THe WIDTH BUT IN N. brevipatellatus Z. ZhaO & S. LI sp. n., THe WIDTH OF SPeRMATHeCAL HeADS IS LONGeR THAN THe HeIGHT; THe WIDTH OF SPeRMATHeCAL BASeS IS SUBeqUAL TO ½ THe WIDTH OF ANTeRIOR SPeRMATHeCA, BUT ABOUT 1½ AS IN N. brevipatellatus sp. n.; AND THe DISTANCe BeTWeeN THe MIDDLe PART OF SPeRMATHeCAe IS LeSS THAN ¼ OF THe WIDTH OF SPeRMATHeCAL BASeS, BUT SUBeqUAL TO ½ AS IN N. brevipatellatus Z. ZhaO & S. LI sp. n. ( FIGS 2B View FIGURE 2 , 4B View FIGURE 4 ).

PALP: PATeLLAR APOPHYSIS SHORTeR THAN THe LeNGTH OF PATeLLA, AND WITH A BeNT eND, ( FIG. 3A View FIGURE 3 ); CYMBIAL FURROW BeING ABOUT ½ THe LeNGTH OF CYMBIUM ( FIG. 3C View FIGURE 3 ); eMBOLUS BeGINNING AT 7 TO 7:30 O’CLOCK POSITION ( FIG. 3B View FIGURE 3 ); MeDIAN APOPHYSIS PReSeNT, NOT SPOON-SHAPeD ( FIGS 3B–C View FIGURE 3 ).
