Spinirta qiaoliaoensis ( Lu & Chen, 2019) comb. nov. (KŪḦẊĦ)

Allomedmassa qiaoliaoensis Lu & Chen, in Lu, Tian & Chen, 2019: 42 , figs 1–4 (♂ holotype: CHINA: Hubei Province, Wufeng county, Qiaoliao village, 30.08°N, 110.54°E, 966.5 m a.s.l., 22 August 2018, leg. Jiachen Zhang & Rui Zhong; 2♀ paratype, same locality and data as holotype. All type specimens are deposited in Center for Behavioral Ecology and Evolutionary, College of Life Sciences , Hubei University, China—not examined).

Distribution. China (Hubei) ( Fig. 26 ).

Remarks. The male and female of Allomedmassa qiaoliaoensis are consistent in somatic and genitalic morphology with other members of Spinirta gen. nov. described in this paper, particularly the dense field of spines on the RTA, stout and grooved embolus, large atrium, and inflated copulatory ducts ( Lu et al. 2019: figs 1C–F, 2C–D). This species can be recognised by the distinctive unbranched looping embolus and the atrium relatively far from the epigynal posterior margin ( Lu et al. 2019: figs 1D, 2D).
