(G.) bifurcatus Gorochov, 2010, but differs from them in having the epiphallus of the male genitalia trapezoidal, without upper and lower deep notches and the hind tibia provided with 54-60 spines on each side for the new species. In T. (G.) lushuicus Qin, Liu &amp; Li, 2019, the epiphallus of the male genitalia has an upper deep notch, and the hind tibia above has 61-67 spines on each side. In T. (G.) parvus Qin, Liu &amp; Li, 2019, the epiphallus of the male genitalia has an upper and lower deep notch, and the female subgenital plate is triangular. In T. (G.) bifurcatus Gorochov, 2010, the epiphallus is strongly transverse, with a slightly notched upper part and medial projections on the lower part, and with a pair of large, almost oval lateral sclerites in males.</p><p>Type locality.</p><p>Holotype, 1♂, Diaosiyan Cave, Ziyun County, Guizhou, 25°35.06'N, 106°12.32'E, 1110-1120 m alt., October 2, 2019, collected by Xulin Zhou; paratypes, 1♀, same data as holotype.</p><p>Specimens examined.</p><p>Diaosiyan Cave, Ziyun County, Guizhou Province: nymphs 11♂♂ 10♀♀, June 10, 2019, collected by Xulin Zhou, Juan Liao and Yi Du; 13♂♂ 9♀♀, October 2, 2019, collected by Xulin Zhou, Haixia Luo, Panpan Ren, Meizhen Deng and Suqin Zhao.

Body medium-sized (Fig. 5). Vertex divided into two conical tubercles (Fig. 1A, B). Ommateum normal, not reduced; ocelli visible. Legs elongate and slender; fore femur about 1.6-1.8 times longer than the pronotum, ventrally unarmed, internal genicular lobe with a small spine; external genicular lobe with one elongate movable spur; ventral side of fore tibiae with two external spurs and two internal spurs. Mid femur ventrally unarmed, internal, and external genicular lobes with one elongate movable spur respectively; ventral side of mid tibiae with one external spur and one internal spur. Hind femur without spines ventrally; hind tibiae with 55-60 outer spines and 54-58 inner spines, arranged in groups. Supra-internal spurs of hind tibiae not exceeding ventral apex of hind tarsus (Fig. 1C). Hind tarsus keeled ventrally and with one dorsal apical spine.
