Abstract
ABSTRACT Lithobius (Ezembius) brachyspinipes sp. n. (Lithobiomorpha: Lithobiidae), recently discovered in Yiyang County, Luoyang City, Henan Province, China, is described, is morphologically similar to Lithobius (Ezembius) multispinipes Pei et al, 2016 from Xinjiang Autonomous Region, but is distinguishable by having a different size of the posterior two ocelli, a different morphology of the second article of the female gonopod, and apical claw third article of female gonopods, and legs 14 plectrotaxy. A table of the main morphological characters of Chinese Lithobius (Ezembius) species is presented.
