China (Sichuan). Known only from the cave Hua’er Dong (Figs 2 View Figure 2 , 6 View Figure 6 ).

Uéno (2003) gave a detailed description of the cave Hua’er Dong in which there are two main entrances in opposite directions (Fig. 6A-D View Figure 6 ). The exemplars of Uenoaphaenops fani ( Uéno, 2003) comb. nov. were collected on the wall or under stone in the moist areas about 20-30 m from the left entrance in dark zone. It is sympatric with Jujiroa wangzheni sp. nov. (Fig. 6E View Figure 6 ).
