What the sources say about this taxon, as written.

etymology · Plazi

Etymology . The name arcophallus is derived from the arc-like terminal segment of the G1. Colour . Generally dark brown to purplish brown in life. ( Fig. 1 A) Ecology . The type locality, Heishiding Nature Reserve, is located between 23°25'15” – 23°30'02”N , 111°49'09” – 111°55'01”E , and covers an area of 4200 hectares. The locality consists of tropical/sub-tropical evergreen broad-leaved forest with many mountain streams. Yuexipotamon arcophallus , new genus , new species , lives in small hill streams or waterlogged forest floors. They are primarily aquatic and can be found residing under rocks or in burrows during the day. The burrows are usually “Y” shaped with two exits ( Fig.1 B). In their natural habitat, they occur sympatrically with the potamids Chinapotamon depressum Dai , Song, Li & Liang, 1980, and Nanhaipotamon cf. pingyuanense Dai, 1997 . Being the smallest of the three species found in the reserve, Yuexipotamon arcophallus , new genus , new species , is likely preyed upon by the other larger potamid species. This may be a reason to why they are most abundant in very shallow creeks and waterlogged forest floors where the water is not deep enough for the large Chinapotamon depressum and away from the burrows of Nanhaipotamon cf. pingyuanense .
