Fig. 3. 1–8. Linglongtaestheria daxishanensis gen. and sp. nov. 1, displaced carapaces, holotype, NIGPCAS 163667 (L1–1) (light microscopy). 2, small-sized polygonal reticulation on growth bands near the umbo (SEM). 3, evenly distributed small puncta on growth bands in the middle part of the carapace (SEM). 4, small-sized polygonal reticulation on growth bands in the antero-dorsal part of the carapace (SEM). 5,7, two kinds of ornamentation pattern on growth bands in the postero-ventral part of the carapace, i.e., punctate ornamentation in the upper, radial lirae with two rows of intercalated radially aligned puncta in the lower part of each growth band (SEM). 6, small-sized, polygonal reticulation transitions to radial lirae with intercalated radially aligned puncta on growth bands in the antero-dorsal part of the carapace (SEM). 8, two kinds of ornamentation pattern on single growth bands in the antero-ventral part of the carapace, i.e., puncta in the upper, punctate small-sized reticulation in the lower part of each growth band (SEM). Scale bars: (1) = 1 mm; (2, 5) = 20 μm; (4) = 50 μm; (3, 6–8) = 100 μm.
