Type material.
Holotype: ♀, China, Fujian Province: Wuyishan City, Wuyi Mountain Natural Reserves (26°39'42"N, 117°56'24"E, 399 m), 28 August 2019, Y. Zhong and F.J. Liu leg. Paratypes: 1 ♀, same data as holotype.
Diagnosis.
This new species is similar to C. ferrumequina , C. tauricornis sp. nov. and C. volubilis sp. nov. in having spherical spermathecae, and long and looped copulatory ducts, but can be distinguished from them by the direction of the copulatory duct: it starts from the middle and anterior part of the atrium, extends posteriorly, then curves several times and enters the spermathecae laterally and ventrally in C. anguilliformis sp. nov. (Fig. 7E-H View Figure 7 ); it starts from the lateral and anterior part of the atrium, extends anteriorly, then curves several times and enters the spermathecae laterally and dorsally in C. ferrumequina (Fig. 4E-H View Figure 4 ); it starts from the lateral and anterior part of the atrium, extends anteriorly, then curves several times and enters the spermathecae laterally and ventrally in C. tauricornis sp. nov. and C. volubilis sp. nov. (Figs 10D-G View Figure 10 , 11D-G View Figure 11 ).
Etymology.
The specific name is derived from the Latin adjective Campanicola anguilliformis , meaning eel-like, referring to the eel-like copulatory ducts; adjective.
