Material examined

Thirty-three specimens were collected from Ningshan County, over 1000 specimens from Mount Taibai.

Remarks

This species was reported as a new record for China from Beijing Municipality and Guangdong Province (Rahm 1936–1937a, 1936–1937b). It was subsequently collected from Shanxi Province ( Bartoš 1963), from Yunnan Province ( Beasley and Cleveland 1996), from Sechuan Province ( Yang 2003). My specimens fit the description of this species ( Ramazzotti and Maucci 1983; Dastych 1988). It has never been reported from the Tsinling Mountains.
