Etymology: A combination of the Latin planus, meaning flat, and the ending - ceps (from princeps), meaning head, referring to the vertical lobe of the apically flat gonopod.

Diagnosis: This species resembles A. onchopyga in the male terminalia, but can be distinguished from it by the paramere being broadened and strongly sclerotized, distally bifurcated and curved, with two serrated processes on the outer process (Fig. 10 D, E). In A. onchopyga, the paramere is slender, and hook shaped apically (as shown by Nishiharu, 1979: fig. 2 E). Measurements and indices: BL = 2.88 mm (3.13 mm in one ♂ paratype), ThL = 1.21 mm (1.23 mm), WL = 2.36 mm (2.38 mm), WW = 1.19 mm (1.20 mm), arb = 4 / 3 (5 / 3), avd = 0.77 (1.31), adf = 1.21 (1.20), flw = 2.43 (2.46), FW / HW = 0.32 (0.44), ch / o = 0.11 (0.10), prorb = 0.71 (0.96), rcorb = 0.51 (0.63), vb = 0.87 (0.79), dcl = 0.62 (0.76), presctl = 0.68 (0.66), sctl = 1.15 (1.07), sterno = 0.74 (0.88), orbito = 1.29 (1.76), dcp = 0.19 (0.29), sctlp = 1.05 (1.16), C = 2.61 (1.84), 4 c = 1.58 (1.51), 4 v = 2.52 (2.79), 5 x = 1.34 (1.28), ac = 2.87 (3.52), M = 0.72 (0.57), C 3 F = 0.67 (0.62). Description Male terminalia (Fig. 10 A – E): Epandrium nearly separated mid-dorsally, with ca. 14 setae near posterior and ventral margins per side. Surstylus with sparse pubescence dorsally and one or two aristate processes on mesal surface, 18 long prensisetae on distal margin and a finger-like process at posteroventral corner. Anterior portion of hypandrium entirely thin. Aedeagus slender. Aedeagal apodeme strongly curved.	en	Wang, Ya-Lian, Cao, Hui-Luo, Chen, Hong-Wei (2020): Molecular phylogeny and species delimitation of Amiota alboguttata and Amiota basdeni species groups (Diptera: Drosophilidae) from East Asia.

China: Mengdong, Cangyuan, Yunnan, 23 ° 10 ′ 18 ″ N, 99 ° 13 ′ 20 ″ E, elevation 1323 m, L. Zhu, Y. L. Wang. Etymology: Named in honor of Dr Xing-Lai Ji (Yunnan University, China). Diagnosis: This species slightly resembles A. gaoi in the male terminalia, but can be distinguished from it by the paramere being pubescent, apically thin and basally expanded; aedeagus slender, distally strongly curved, with several serrated processes submedially and subapically (Fig. 11 D, E). In A. gaoi, the paramere has no pubescence, and is thick, finely serrated on apical margin; the aedeagus is basally thick, distally slender, medioventrally with one small, triangular projection (as shown by Zhang & Chen, 2006: figs 2, 3). Measurements and indices: BL = 3.10 mm (2.91 – 3.26 mm in six ♂ paratypes), ThL = 2.00 mm (1.39 – 1.92 mm), WL = 2.25 mm (2.33 – 2.46 mm), WW = 1.50 mm (1.05 – 1.51 mm), arb = 4 / 3 (4 – 5 / 3), avd = 0.67 (0.62 – 0.93), adf = 1.50 (1.33 – 1.51), flw = 1.50 (1.30 – 1.57), FW / HW = 0.47 (0.43 – 0.44), ch / o = 0.07 (0.07 – 0.09), prorb = 0.92 (0.91 – 1.00), rcorb = 0.67 (0.69 – 0.83), vb = 0.57 (0.60 – 0.64), dcl = 0.56 (0.57 – 0.65), presctl = 0.60 (0.55 – 0.71), sctl = 1.13 (1.09 – 1.15), sterno = 0.71 (0.72 – 0.91), orbito = 1.70 (1.60 – 2.06), dcp = 0.27 (0.30 – 0.32), sctlp = 1.00 (0.90 – 1.03), C = 1.86 (1.80 – 1.99), 4 c = 1.43 (1.45 – 1.70), 4 v = 2.38 (2.36 – 2.77), 5 x = 1.20 (1.04 – 1.30), ac = 4.29 (3.57 – 4.45), M = 0.57 (0.50 – 0.66), C 3 F = 0.70 (0.64 – 0.69). Description Male terminalia (Fig. 11 A – E): Epandrium constricted more than half width mid-dorsally, with ~ 13 setae near posterior and ventral margins per side. Surstylus entirely pubescent, with three aristate processes on mesal surface, nine long prensisetae on distal margin and a finger-like process at posteroventral corner. Anterior portion of hypandrium entirely thin. Paramere subbasolatrally with approximately eight sensilla. Aedeagal apodeme strongly curved.	en	Wang, Ya-Lian, Cao, Hui-Luo, Chen, Hong-Wei (2020): Molecular phylogeny and species delimitation of Amiota alboguttata and Amiota basdeni species groups (Diptera: Drosophilidae) from East Asia.
