Type material. Holotype female, 6 female paratypes, VIETNAM: Hai Phong Province, Cat Ba National Park, Trung Trang Cave (N20°46.68', E106°58.35'), 16 July, 2008, Shuqiang LI, Guo ZHENG & Dinh-Sac PHAM leg.
Etymology. The species epithet is derived from the Latin ‘ parvi ’ and ‘ triangulus ’, referring to the small and triangular atrium in this new species; adjective.
Diagnosis. The new species is similar to N. pseudovietnamensis sp. nov. in having the small and triangular atrium, the large copulatory ducts, the small and anteriorly situated spermathecal heads ( Figs 78A–B, 79B–C), but can be distinguished from the latter by the widely separated and elliptic copulatory ducts, the complex spemathecal stalks which are not entirely covered by copulatory ducts ( Figs 78A–B, 79B–C).
Description. Female. Total length 4.50–5.10. Holotype total length 4.75, prosoma 2.25 long, 1.65 wide; opisthosoma 2.50 long, 1.60 wide. Eye measurements: AME 0.05; ALE 0.13; PME 0.11; PLE 0.13; AME– AME 0; AME–ALE 0; ALE–PLE 0; PME–PME 0.08; PME–PLE 0.04. Clypeus height 0.13. Leg formula: IV, I, II, III; leg measurements: I: 8.60 (2.25, 2.80, 2.20, 1.35); II: 7.35 (1.95, 2.45, 1.75, 1.20); III: 6.60 (1.85, 1.95, 1.80, 1.00); IV: 9.45 (2.45, 3.00, 2.70, 1.30). Chelicerae with three promarginal and two retromarginal teeth ( Fig. 78C). Epigynal teeth absent ( Figs 78A, 79B); atrium small, triangular, with a tongue-shaped posterior extension ( Figs 78A, 79B); copulatory ducts elliptic, covering the most of spermathecae (Figs 784B, 79C); spermathecae large, rounded, widely separated ( Figs 78B, 79C); spermathecal heads small, extended anteriorly, with distinct stalks ( Figs 78B, 79C).
