Opisthosoma: opisthosoma dorsally with 54 (51–55) annuli, with spiny microtubercles projecting ahead of rear annular margin, ventrally with 62 (62–63) annuli, with round microtubercles on rear annular margin. Setae c2 40 (35–42) on ventral annulus 9 (8–9), 55 (54–55) apart; setae d 58 (56–62) on ventral annulus 20 (20–21), 40 (38–41) apart; setae e 56 (52–61) on ventral annulus 36 (36–38), 22 (22–23) apart, setae f 32 (30– 33) on 5th ventral annulus from rear, 21 (20–22) apart.

Holotype, female (slide number NJAUAcariEri199, marked Holotype), from Fargesia spathacea Franch. (Poaceae, Bambuseae), Zhouzhi County, Shaanxi Province, P. R. China, 34°03ʹ54ʹʹN, 108°19ʹ22ʹʹE, elevation 500m, 31 August 2004, coll. Xiao-Feng Xue and Zi-Wei Song. Paratypes, 7 females (slide number NJAUAcariEri199), with the same data as holotype.</p> <p>Relation to host. Vagrant on leaf surface. No damage to the host was observed.</p> <p>Etymology. The specific designation spathaceae is from the species name of the host plant, spathacea.</p> <p>Differential diagnosis. This species is similar to T. fargesiae Xue, Song, Amrine &amp; Hong, 2006, but can be differentiated from the latter by prodorsal shield with median and admedian lines connected, forming 8 central “cells”, submedian lines complete (median line obscure, submedian lines absent in T. fargesiae), empodium 9-rayed (empodium 8-rayed in T. fargesiae), and frontal lobe broad (frontal lobe acuminate in T. fargesiae).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/2D3FEF46FFB4FFD1D4C8FECFFC3DF95A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
