Abstract

Tachycines (Gymnaeta) trapezialissp. nov. (梯形裸灶螽) is described with specimens collected from Diaosiyan and Sanjiaoshan caves in Ziyun County, Guizhou, China. The unique trapezoidal shape of the epiphallus in males and the subgenital plate in females, which separate the new taxon from its congeners, are illustrated.
