Hypechiniscus fengi is a species tardigrade within the family Echiniscidae,[1][2] described in China by Xizhai Sun and Xiaochen Li. It was compared to other members within its genus, H. exarmatus, H. gladiator, and H. papillifer. Differentiations between the species are; H. fengi having a more robust medium dorsal spine and larger spurs on the internal claws when compared to H. exarmatus; H. fengi lacking a dentate collar on the fourth pair of legs when compared to H. gladiator; and H.fengi lacking papillae on all four pairs of legs when compared to H. papillifer.[3]
