Professor Jian Huang (FAFU) confirmed our identification. Our specimens agree well with the original description in Huang (1994). A minor difference should be noted: mesoscutellum (Figs 1 , 4 ) of our specimens with two yellow curved stripes anteriorly like C. yunnana , but in the original description mesoscutellum without yellow markings anteriorly (cf. fig. 90C in Huang 1994). Here we provided the digital images and DNA sequence for references.

Host.

Unknown.

Distribution.
