(s. str.) dimidiatipennis Jacoby, 1895 and C. (s. str.) nigroflavus Lopatin, 2004a, it can be distinguished by the pronotal punctures and the yellow band in the middle part of elytra. Moreover, the new species has stouter aedeagus in male and slenderer spermathecal duct in female.</p><p>Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from the Chinese name (Pinyin) of the type locality, Longwangshan.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D9C53EFFC3E822A4B6F8E1FE85FE2A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Rectal sclerites slightly sclerotized, not connected between two rectangular sclerites on ventral side.</p><p>Distribution. China (Sichuan, Yunnan).</p><p>Diagnosis. The new species can be distinguished from other close-allied ones by color patterns, even though they have similar form with their aedeagus and spermatheca. For other species outside of this species group, the new species is similar to C. (s. str.) dalianus Lopatin, 2004b, but can be distinguished by the elytral black stripe and by the spermatheca of female with thicker and longer duct coiling.</p><p>Etymology. The specific epithet is named in memory of the collector, Ms. Yang Gan-yan.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D9C53EFFC4E82CA4B6FDE2FB7AFBA7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
