Stegana (Steganina) latitabula View in CoL sp. nov.

( Figs 2B View FIGURE 2 , 5 View FIGURE 5 )

Diagnosis. Surstylus broadened and short ( Fig. 5A, B View FIGURE 5 ); aedeagus nearly round apically ( Fig. 5C View FIGURE 5 ); gonopods semicircular and broadened laterally in ventral view ( Fig. 5E View FIGURE 5 ). The minimum interspecific genetic distance to S. pililobosa is 8.3%, which is smaller than to other species ( Table 2).

Description. Male: Frons brown, with 1 black band below. First flagellomere yellow, black at apical margin. Clypeus and palpus yellow. Mesonotum brownish to brown, with 3 pairs of yellow longitudinal stripes sublaterally ( Fig. 2B View FIGURE 2 ). Katepisternum white ( Fig. 2B View FIGURE 2 ). Scutellum brown ( Fig. 2B View FIGURE 2 ). Femur of foreleg with 3 long erect setae near distal part of posteroventral surface. Abdominal tergites dark brown medially, brownish laterally ( Fig. 2B View FIGURE 2 ). Male terminalia ( Fig. 5 View FIGURE 5 ): Epandrium protruded ventrally, with ca. 28 setae on posterior portion per side. Surstylus with several setulae distally. Cercus lacking pubescence. Paramere with 2 setulae. Tenth sternite inverted triangular per side.

BL = 3.01 mm in holotype, ThL = 1.41 mm, WL = 2.95 mm, WW = 1.23 mm, arb = 6/4, avd = 0.63, adf = 1.20, flw = 1.76, FW/HW = 0.40, ch/o = 0.20, prorb = 0.73, rcorb = 0.70, vb = 0.51, dc1 = 0.47, presct1 = 0.54, sct1 = 0.90, sterno = damaged, orbito = 1.76, dcp = 0.28, sct1p = 1.67, C = 1.88, 4c = 1.11, 4v = 1.67, 5x = 1.29, ac = 9.33, M = 0.49, C3F = 0.63.

Specimens examined. Holotype ♂ ( SCAU, No. 110945), China: Pangquangou, Jiaocheng , Shanxi, 37°04'47''N, 111°30'20''E, altitude 2200m, 30.vii.2016, tree trunk, YL Wang. GoogleMaps

Etymology. A combination of the Latin words: latus and tabula, reference to the surstylus broadened distally.
