            <p>Type locality.</p>
            <p>Phu Pha Lom limestone area, Mueang Loei District, Loei Province, Thailand.</p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p>Animal with blackish body, shell lobes with blackish reticulated skin (Figs 2, 3). Genitalia with very short cylindrical vagina, smooth elongated cylindrical epiphallus, without penial caecum (Fig. 4). Radula with bicuspid lateral teeth (Fig. 5B, C).</p>
            <p>Description.</p>
            <p> (empty shells = 8, living specimen = 4) Shell (Fig. 2A). Shell globose, small size (shell height 6.03  ± 0.71.00 mm, shell width 9.72  ± 1.32 mm), shell imperforate, thin, smooth, dark brown color; transparence, aperture large (aperture height 5.28  ± 0.68 mm and aperture width 5.71  ± 0.81 mm). </p>
            <p>Genital system (N = 3) (Fig. 4). Atrium (at) short. Penis rather long and cylindrical, with thin penial sheath covering entire penis. Penial retractor muscle (prm) present, short, thin and attached at junction of e1 and e2. Epiphallus (e1+e2) length is slightly equal to penis length, surface smooth, e1 cylindrical and gradually smaller in diameter, e2 cylindrical and larger than e1. Flagellum absent. Vas deferens long. Vagina is shorter than penis, cylindrical. Gametolytic duct (gd) thickened at base, gametolytic sac (gs) swollen gland at distal end. Free oviduct (fo) is shorter than vagina. Uterus and prostate gland long and stout.</p>
            <p>Radula (N = 3) (Fig. 5). Teeth arranged in a wide V-shape with half row formula: 1-7-70+teeth. Central teeth symmetric tricuspid. Lateral teeth and marginal teeth gradually changing from broad to narrow bicuspid.</p>
            <p>External appearance (Figs 2B, 3). Living semislug with reticulated skin, blackish to dark body marked by conspicuous grooves running downward. Four mantle extensions well developed and same color body. Shell lobes do not cover entire shell. Caudal horn absent.</p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> The species name " niger " is derived from Latin word, meaning  “black” referring to blackish body and mantle extensions. </p>
            <p>Distribution, habitat and behavior observations.</p>
            <p> Cryptosemelus niger sp. nov. is a species restricted to the dry evergreen forest that covers the Phu Pha Lom limestone area, Loei Province, Thailand. We searched after rain and found the specimens normally hiding on the ground and in the leaf litter. When the snails were disturbed, they escaped by quickly flipping and waging their tail. Information on its natural predators is unknown, but the carnivorous land snails,  Discartemon sp.,  Oophana sp. (  Streptaxidae ), and  Sinoennea loeiensis Tanmuangpak &amp; S. Tumpeesuwan, 2015 (  Diapheridae ) were found in the same locality (Tanmuangpak et al. 2012; Tanmuangpak et al. 2015; Tanmuangpak 2016). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Cryptosemelus niger sp. nov. differ from other  Cryptosemelus species by its black body and mantle lobes. The shell seems to have a more rapidly descending whorl than in  C. gracilis and  C. betarmon , but is similar to  C. tigrinus .  Cryptosemelus gracilis also lack a penial caecum but differs in the undulated surface patch on the proximal part of e2. The epiphallus and penis are cylindrical without a caecum, diverticulum, and granulate surface. The radula of the new species differs from all  Cryptosemelus in having bicuspid lateral teeth, whereas other species have tricuspid lateral teeth (Table 2, Figs 2A, B, 3A-D, 4, 5B-D). </p>
