Two new species of tetragnathid spiders from Guizhou and Sichuang provinces in China are described and provided with detailed descriptions, diagnoses, and photographs. A key and distribution map for Chinese Diphya species are also included. DNA barcodes obtained from both new species will be useful for species delimitation, matching of different sexes, and future molecular studies.
Two new species of tetragnathid spiders from Guizhou and Sichuang provinces of China are described: Diphya guiyangJ. Zhang & H. Yu, sp. nov. (male female) and Diphya weimianiJ. Zhang & H. Yu, sp. nov. (female). Detailed descriptions, diagnoses, and photographs are provided for these two species, as well as a key and a distribution map for Chinese Diphya species. DNA barcodes (a partial fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene, COI) of both new species were obtained for species delimitation, matching of different sexes, and future use in molecular studies.
