Du Sheng, prep. slide nos. L21045 –21046. Paratypes. One female, same collection data as holotype.</p> <p>Diagnosis. Head with three conical tubercles situated in dorsal median of frons (Fig. 3 A−D). Pereonites 1 and 2 with 12 large conical tubercles near posterior margins, three and four conical tubercles present on lateral areas of tergites 1 and 2, respectively; pereonite 3 with six to seven lateral weak tubercles, posterior margin smooth (Fig. 3A, B).</p> <p>Description. Body length 20 mm. Colour grey, tubercles and epimera white, posterior margin of pereon and pleon slightly lighter. Pereonites 1 and 2 with 12 large conical tubercles near posterior margins, directed upwards on tergite 1 and backwards on tergite 2, and their lateral areas with three and four conical tubercles, respectively; pereonite 3 with six to seven weak tubercles on lateral area, posterior margin smooth; pereonites 4–7 smooth (Fig. 3A, B). Pleon short, smooth and narrower than pereon, epimera of pleonite 5 reaching distal one third part of the basipodite (Fig. 3E).

Antennule composed of three articles, segment 1 approximate as long as segments 2 and 3 (Fig. 4A). Antenna reaches posterior part of pereonite 2 when extended backwards, flagellum with first segment slightly longer than second one (Fig. 4B).</p> <p>Pereopods I and VII without sexual dimorphism. Pereopod I with two and three spines on distal tip of merus and carpus respectively, pereopod VII with five and six spines on the distal tip of merus and carpus respectively (Fig. 4C, D).</p> <p>Pleopods, sexual differentiation. Pleopods I and II exopodites with sinuous outer margins, pleopodal lungs well-developed (Fig. 4E, G); pleopods III–V exopodites with small lungs (Fig. 4H–J). Male pleopod I endopodite with broad basal part, narrowed towards apical tip, apical tip finger-like, equipped with four small spines and a line of tiny thorns (Fig. 4F). Male pleopod II endopodite slightly longer exopodite, with distal article long and narrowed apically (Fig. 4G). Pleopods III–V exopodites distally angled on inner margin (Fig. 4H–J).</p> <p>Distribution. China (Xinjiang).</p> <p>Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin conicus = conical, in reference to the species that has well-developed conical tubercles on the dorsal surface of the head and pereonites 1 and 2.</p> <p>Remarks. This new species is similar to Hemilpistus rhinoceros Borutzky, 1958 by pereonites 1 and 2 with conical tubercles directed upwards on tergite 1 and backwards on tergite 2. But it can be distinguished from the latter by the largest tubercle on the dorsal side of the head situated in a lateral position, and pereonite 3 with six to seven tubercles on the lateral area (Fig. 3A, C). In H. rhinoceros, the largest tubercle of the head is situated in the median position, and the smooth pereonite 3 without tuberosity (Lincoln 1970).</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/E759432E543FFFC7FF75D092FC1BFE63	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
