Hamusolidia , gen. nov.

Type species. Hamusolidia introrsa , sp. nov.

Description. Moderately large, slender species. General habitus similar to Laosolidia gen. nov. (see below); pygofer in lateral view broad, similar to Laosolidia ; aedeagus extremely long, narrow with long, single, very narrow subapical process similar to Olidiana , 2 curved, very short secondary processes medially on shaft; style very broad in lateral and dorsal views, apophysis small; connective large, anterior arms broad, digitate laterally, apex hooked; subgenital plate broad, similar to Laosolidia .

Etymology. The name is a combination of the Latin root hamus [= hooked] and suffix - olidia, an arbitrary name derived from the genus Coelidia . The gender is feminine.

Remarks. From Laosolidia to which it is similar, Hamusolidia can be separated by the very slender aedeagus, broad style and the unique, lateral digitate stem of the connective in dorsal view. Only 1 species is known.
