Li & J. Liu leg.
Diagnosis
The male of C. euryopoides differs from the males of other species by the mesal bristle of the embolic apophysis describing a semi-loop very close to the embolus base and a semi-loop around the bulb, and the straight median apophysis having a tapering tip (Lopardo and Hormiga 2015[1]: fig. 124B, E, F). The female of C. euryopoides can be distinguished from the other five species by having 9 coils of the copulatory ducts (Fig. 1E), whereas other species have fewer coils. Moreover, C. euryopoides differs from C. anaktakun, C. discobulbus, and C. huifengi sp. nov. by having a posterior tubercle on the abdomen (Fig. 1A–C), whereas this tubercle is absent in the latter three species.
Description
See Fig. 1A–F and Miller et al. (2009[2]: 30). Male of this species remains unknown.
Distribution
China (Yunnan) and Thailand (Chiang Mai) (Fig. 6).
