Scanned egg is 0.13 mm length and 0.08 mm width. Oval, with one polar cap, surface sculptured with hexagonal structures and decorated with sparse tubercle-like projections (Fig. 6).</p> <p>Distribution. China (Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Anhui, Gansu, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shaanxi, Henan provinces), Thailand, India (Fig. 7).</p> <p>Ecology. The stream where the C. gosei nymphs were collected is 4.0–8.0 m wide, with water depth 0.2–0.5 m, and contains stones of various sizes (Fig. 8). The nymphs were collected under stones. The nymphs emerged at about 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM local time in April, most around 5:00 PM; before molting to subimago, the nymph were seen climbing on the substrates underwater or floating on water surface for about 30 minutes. Subimagos persisted for 24–36 hours, most of them molted around 1:00 AM to 6:00 AM. The observed lifespan of imagos was about 3 days.</p> <p>Molecular similarity: The COI gene sequence of our C. gosei is most similar to Thai materials under the same species name. The distance between them is 0.170 while the average distance of known species in the genus Cincticostella is 0.217 –0.270 (Table 2).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03AFDD301416BA66FF14FDE3FDC70BCC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
