Name
Hartemita khuatbaolinhae Long & van Achterberg, 2011 sp. n. – Wikispecies link – ZooBank link – Pensoft Profile
Type material
Holotype, female (IEBR), “Card.001”, “[NE Vietnam:] Phu Tho, Xuan Son NP, forest, 10.v.2005, P. Th. Nhi.” Paratypes: 1 female (RMNH), “Card.002”, data as holotype; 1 female (IEBR), “Card.010”, “[CN Vietnam:] Ha Tinh, Huong Son, Son Hong, 23.iv.2004, Tr. X. Lam”.
Diagnosis
The new species is similar to Hartemita muirii (Fullaway), but differs by having the face rugose-punctate (punctate in Hartemita muirii; Fig. 4), temples bulging (subparallel-sided in Hartemita muirii; Fig. 7), hind basitarsus largely yellow (largely blackish in Hartemita muirii; Fig. 5) and the hind claw with 5 teeth (8 teeth in Hartemita muirii; Fig. 8).
