Integrative morphological and molecular evidence reveals a new genus of scutigerid centipede from Hainan, China, with implications for its evolution and biogeography (Scutigeromorpha: Scutigeridae)

Hainanthereua albilineata sp. nov., paratype. A Mandible, internal view; B second maxilla (left), prolateral view; C part of the forcipular segment, ventral view; D tarsal papillae on tarsomeres of leg 8 tarsus II, posterior view, showing the short-long alternation of tarsal papillae; E tarsal papillae on tarsomeres of leg 10 tarsus II, posterior view, showing long papillae of consistent size. Triangles represent long papillae, and circles represent short papillae.
