Description

Telema dongbei Wang & Ran, 1998

T. dongbei Wang & Ran, 1998: 94, f. 1–5; Song et al., 1999: 51, f. 21R–U. (Male holotype, 1 female paratype from China: Guizhou: Dongbei Cave, Shuipa Village [25º80ʹN, 107º54ʹE], Yuping Town, Maolan National Natural Reserve, Libo County, 13 Sept. 1996, J.C. Ran leg., deposited in American Museum of Natural History, New York, not examined).

Material examined. None.

Diagnosis. Telema dongbei seems closest to T. conglobare, but the male differs from the latter by the falculate embolus non-contracted proximally; the female by the spermatheca broad proximally and unexpanded distally (Wang & Ran, 1998, figs. 1, 2 and 5).

Description. See Wang and Ran (1998).

Distribution. China (Guizhou) (Fig. 20).
