Description

Eutrichodesmus similis Golovatch, Geoffroy, Mauriès & VandenSpiegel, 2009

Material: 3 ♂, 2 ♀ (IZAS), 10 ♂, 6 ♀, 7 juv. (SCAU), China, Guangxi, Huanjiang County, Mulun Town, Xia Dong. 0 3.11.2009, leg. Louis Deharveng, Anne Bedos & Tain Mingyi (CHIgx09-074). 3 ♂, 2 ♀, 2 juv. (SCAU), same Town, Number 3 Dong. 26.07.2008, leg. Lin Wei & Xue Zhihong (CHIgx08-LWX02).

Remarks: The above material is in good agreement with the original description by Golovatch et al. (2009). This species has originally been recorded from two caves (Gui Dong 2 and Shenlong Dong) in Huanjiang County, Guangxi, China (Golovatch et al. 2009), but Shenlong Dong is actually the cave Xialan Dong away from Gui Dong 2 about 40 km. The new samples come from two other caves which are away from Gui Dong 2 about 4 km.
