Deposited in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing. Paratypes: 7 apterous females on two slides, same data as for holotype. Deposited in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China and in the Zoological Institute, Russian Academy of Science, St. Petersburg, Russia. Etymology. Specific name hirsutissima derived from the Latin word “ hirsutus ” (= shaggy) in a superlative degree. Description. Apterous viviparous female. Body 1.58–1.83 (1.73) times as long as its width.

Chaetotaxy of first tarsal segments 3, 3, 3 and only one specimen with 2 hairs on one hind tarsus. 2 nd segment of hind tarsus with scales, 5.33–5.83 (5.54) times as long as its maximum width and 0.81–1.02 (0.92) times as long as base of 6 th antennal segment. Abdominal segment III with 116–142 (126.7) spinal and marginal hairs, longest dorsal, marginal and ventral hairs on abdominal tergite III 94 –104 (99), 89–106 (99) and 96–109 (101) μm long, 3.08–3.73 (3.36), 3.04–3.69 (3.36) and 2.92–3.87 (3.42) times as long as articular diameter of 3 rd antennal segment, respectively. Siphunculi 0.55–0.84 (0.71) times as long as its basal width. Tergite VIII with 19–33 (26.4) hairs 109–114 (112) μm long, 3.61 –4.00 (3.84) times as long as articular diameter of 3 rd antennal segment. Subgenital plate oval, with 21– 29 (24.5) hairs on anterior half and 15–25 (20.5) hairs on posterior half and along the hind margin. Cauda with 10–17 (13.1) hairs. Measurements of holotype. Body— 1714 x 1026, antennae— 1935: III— 410 x 44, IV— 362, V— 344, VI— 177 + 430; hind femur— 611, hind tibia— 1005; siphunculus— 19 x 23; cauda— 175 x 185 (at base) x 159 (before base).
