Abstract

Chinese Yamatentomon is revised and Yamatentomon guoi sp. nov. is described from northeastern China. The new species is characterized by the extremely long sensillum b on foretarsus, short and slender A1 setae on tergites I–VII, presence of P3a on tergites IV–VII, 5 pairs of A-setae on tergite VII, and pore arrangement on tergites IV–VI. The new species is similar to Y. kunnepchupi Imadaté, 1964, but can be distinguished by the length of sensilla b and e on foretarsus, and chaetotaxy of tergites IV and V. DNA barcodes for the new species are provided to give a reference for identification in the future. In addition, Yamatentomon yamato (Imadaté & Yosii, 1956) was redescribed based on the specimens from type locality. An updated key to the world species of the genus was also provided.
