Diagnosis.
Pimoa putou sp. nov. resembles those of P. jinchuan sp. nov. (Fig. 20A-D View Figure 20 ) and P. yele sp. nov. (Fig. 50A-D View Figure 50 ) but can be distinguished by the tongue-shaped ventral plate with two processes proximally (Fig. 39A View Figure 39 ) (vs. distally curved in P. jinchuan sp. nov. and broad in P. yele sp. nov.) and also distinguished from P. yele sp. nov. by the ventral plate slightly longer than the dorsal plate (Fig. 39B View Figure 39 ) (vs. shorter).
