Labium (Fig. 5G) with glossae subequal to paraglossae; both inner and outer margins of glossae with row of pointed setae, dorsal surface of glossae with well-defined group of fine setae subapically; ventral surface of glossae with group of long setae extending from basal part of glossa along its inner margin to apex; paraglossae with two rows of long, stout setae apically; labial palp three-segmented; segment I slightly shorter than segments II and III combined; segment II with very small medioapical protuberance and dorsal oblique row of ca. 5-7 long setae; segment III elongated, asymmetrical, with medioapical part widely rounded and lateroapical part extended, with short indistinct projection; all segments of labial palp with hair-like setae, present only occasionally on segments I and II, most dense on ventral surface of segment III; several distinct stout pointed setae present along apical part of segment III.</p><p>Thorax. Forelegs (Fig. 5H). Trochanter with ca. six marginal spine-like setae. Femur dorsally with one row of ca. 13-16 medium, stout setae; additionally, dorsoapical setal patch formed by another 7-9 stout, medium setae; ventral margin with numerous stout, pointed short setae, some of these setae on lateral margin subparallel to ventral margin, villopore absent; lateral margin with occasional short hair-like setae and V-shaped scale bases with scales (not figured in Fig. 5H). Tibia with many setae along ventral margin and group of setae apically; scarce setae also elsewhere on surface of tibia and along dorsal margin; tibiopatellar suture present; lateral margins with scales and numerous scale bases. Tarsus with row of ca. 15-20 small, pointed setae on ventral margin; lateral margins with numerous scale bases. Tarsal claw (Fig. 6B) slightly hooked, with one row of ca. 10-16 small teeth, slightly increasing in size distally, apical setae present, very minute; length of tarsal claw ca. 1/3 of tarsus length; Mid and hindleg (Fig. 5I, J) similar to foreleg, except setae along ventral margin of femora, less robust and more scarce in mid and particularly hindlegs compared to forelegs. Hindwing pads present.</p><p>Abdomen. Tergites (Fig. 6D) not shagreened, with numerous V-shaped scale bases, scales (rounded apically), and thin hair-like setae; distal margin of tergite I without triangular spines, tergites II-X with well-developed row of triangular spines, slightly longer than wide; row of triangular spines on tergite X not interrupted in middle. Sternites with scales, scale bases and setae similar to tergites; distal margin of sternites IV-IX with row of long triangular spines, this row interrupted in middle in sternite IV and also interrupted in places of emerging gonostyli in male nymphs. Gills (Fig. 5K-Q) on segments I-VII, slightly asymmetrical, margins serrated mainly in distal 1/2, dorsal surface with scales and scale bases submarginally, tracheation faintly visible; gill I oval-shaped, rounded apically, ca. 3 × wider than long; gills II-VI widened in distal portion, narrowing and rounded apically, ca. 2.3-2.7 × wider than long; gill VII narrow, widened in middle portion, ca. 3 × wider than long. Paraproct (Fig. 6F) with abundant scales and scale bases (of same shape as on tergites and sternites); distinct prolongation bent dorsally; paraproct margin with ca. 5-10 triangular spines laterally from prolongation and numerous slightly smaller spines medially from prolongation; prolongation margined with ca. 10-20 elongated medium spines, with spines also on ventral surface; cercotractor with scales and scale bases, margin with triangular spines.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>The name of the new species, Takobia sinusopalpata, refers to the sinusoidal shape of the second segment of the maxillary palps, very pronounced and characteristic for this species.</p><p>Distribution and ecology.</p><p>So far known from several localities in the Tien Shan Mountains (Kyrgyzstan). Nymphs were collected from stones and boulders sometimes covered with algae and moss in mountain springs, streams, and small rivers located at altitudes of 1600-2800 m a.s.l., at flow rates of 0.5-1.0 m/s, with water temperatures ca. 10-12°C (Fig. 9A, B).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/BFA948367331540F823583E4AB97D929	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
