Remarks

The type material of S. pengae was collected from a canopy of Castanopsis fabri in Daming Mountain ( Hu & Zhang 2012), while the new material in this study was collected from low vegetation in Silver Fir Forest Park which is about 300 km away from the type locality ( Fig. 1 View Fig ). The discovery of new material greatly enlarges the distribution range of S. pengae . In this study, we also provide more photos from the new collecting site ( Figs 48–51 View Fig View Fig View Fig View Fig ). Stenohya pengae has sexually dimorphic pedipalps which are thinner in the males than in the females.
