Asceua longji Barrion-Dupo, Barrion & Heong, in Barrion et al., 44, fig. 51A–E (♀).

Type material of Asceua longji (examined). Holotype ♀ (coll. no. La1), CHINA: Hainan Island, Chengmai, Laocheng, Longji Hills, 24.IV.2012, leg. A. T. Barrion et al .; Paratype: 1 ♀ (coll. no. So99), Panja Town, Shuiku Village, Songtao Reservoir, 2.IV.2011, leg. A. T. Barrion et al .

Description and diagnosis. See Barrion et al. (2013) for the description of the female; the male remains unknown. The holotype female habitus and epigynal morphology are presented in Figs 18 and 17, respectively. The female of A. longji is similar to A. quadrimaculata Zhang, Zhang & Jia, 2012 by the presence of a central epigynal hood. However, it can be distinguished from A. quadrimaculata by the white pattern terminally on the opisthosoma (vs. absent in A. quadrimaculata, Zhang et al. 2012: fig. 1), the copulatory openings clearly separated from the epigynal hood (vs. copulatory openings and epigynal hood close together in A. quadrimaculata, Zhang et al. 2012: fig. 5), and the spermathecae oval in shape (vs. spermathecae spherical in A. quadrimaculata, Zhang et al. 2012: fig. 5).

Distribution. China (Hainan).
