Measurements (mm). Male, overall length including tegmina: 17.9–18.4; pronotum length × width: 3.0–3.3×3.9– 4.3; tegmina length: 15.0–15.3. Female, overall length including tegmina: 15.5–16.4; pronotum length × width: 3.0–3.4×4.0–4.3; tegmina length: 14.0–14.6.
Body medium, yellowish brown ( Fig. 1 View FIGURES 1 – 9 ). Vertex yellowish brown with middle area pale brown. Ocellar spots pale brown. Face yellowish brown, with one pale yellow macula below each antennal socket ( Fig. 11 View FIGURES 10 – 19. 10 – 11 ). Labrum pale yellowish brown ( Fig. 11 View FIGURES 10 – 19. 10 – 11 ). Fifth maxillary palpomere dark brown while others yellowish brown ( Fig. 11 View FIGURES 10 – 19. 10 – 11 ). Pronotum dark brown with distinct dark yellowish brown and lyrate maculae on disc, each lateral margin hyaline and pale brown ( Fig. 10 View FIGURES 10 – 19. 10 – 11 , 22 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ). Tegmina blackish brown with discoidal area hyaline and pale; hind wings hyaline and pale yellowish brown. Sterna yellowish brown and 1st – 7th segment lateral borders with small black spot ( Fig. 11 View FIGURES 10 – 19. 10 – 11 ).
Vertex with interocular space narrower than the distance between antennal sockets (Fig. 20). Third and fifth maxillary palpomeres approximately same length, and both longer than the fourth ( Fig. 21 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ). Pronotum subelliptical, the middle of hind margin strongly produced ( Fig. 22 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ). Hind wings with radius area narrow, R1 with 4 branches, posterior branches of R extended before the anterior rami of radius and bifurcated at apical; M simple, Cu with two branches; apical triangle distinct. Front femur Type A3 ( Fig. 23 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ). Seventh abdominal tergum specialized with the middle region hyaline but without setae; laterally on each side, a more or less rounded lobe covered with small setae ( Fig. 26 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ).
Supra-anal plate ( Fig. 27 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ) symmetrical in ventral view, hind margin strongly convex in the middle, posterior region scattered with setae; right and left paraprocts dissimilar and irregular, each with an acute spine arising from the middle, the right one pointed caudadly, and the left one curved and directed right. Subgenital plate ( Fig. 28 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ) obviously asymmetrical in dorsal view without obvious process; hind margin uneven with 2 robust fingerlike processes, whose apices scattered with lots of small teeth; right and left posterolateral corners rounded, 2 different conical styli interspersed with some setae arising from the middle and left corner of hind margin.
Male genitalia. L3 ( Fig. 29 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ) long and slender, without preapical incision; L2vm ( Fig. 30 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ) slender, slightly curved and basally rounded, associated with an irregular sclerite by membrane; R2 ( Fig. 31 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ) with a large and irregular sclerite, R3 ( Fig. 31 View FIGURES 21 – 31 ) with 2 obvious sclerites, one of which large and inversed Y-shaped, the other nearly L-shaped.

Li Xinran ; 10♂ 12♀, China, Yunnan Prov., Xishuangbanna, Jinghong, Dadugang , leg. Liu Hongguang .
Remarks. This species resembles H. irregularitervittata in morphology, but can be distinguished by the following characteristics: 1) seventh abdominal tergum specialized but without setae (two group of strong setae present in H. irregularitervittata ); 2) supra-anal plate without intercercal process (intercercal process present in H. irregularitervittata ); 3) L2vm slender, slightly curved and apically tapering (apical half distinctly curved and apex forked in H. irregularitervittata ).
Distribution. China (Yunnan Prov.).
