Descriptive notes. Male ( Fig. 10A View FIGURE ). Aedeagus moderately swollen laterally near middle ( Fig. 11A, B View FIGURE 11 ); ventral processes of parameres abruptly thinned apically near bases, rounded at apices, approaching to each other in ventral view ( Fig. 11A View FIGURE 11 ), and feebly bent ventrlly in lateral view ( Fig. 11C View FIGURE 11 ); conjoint dorsal plate of parameres nearly as long as ventral processes ( Fig. 11C View FIGURE 11 ), with apical margin deeply and roundly emarginate in middle, lateral margins feebly diverging apically, acute at latero-apical angles ( Fig. 11B View FIGURE 11 ), feebly inclined ventrally in lateral view ( Fig. 11C View FIGURE 11 ); the emargination between conjoint dorsal plate and ventral process about 1/3 length of aedeagus ( Fig. 11C View FIGURE 11 ).
Female. Internal organ of reproductive system ( Fig. 12A View FIGURE 12 ): vagina stout and abruptly thinned at ventroapical portion into a very short and stout tube, where diverticulum and spermathecal duct arising next to each other; diverticulum short and spiral, evenly thin along the whole length; spermathecal duct extremely short; spermatheca provided with a spiral tube, progressively thinned apically and longer than diverticulum; accessory gland long, about twice longer than spermatheca.
Abdominal sternite VIII ( Fig. 12C View FIGURE 12 ) moderately narrowed apically, widely rounded at latero-apical angles, and shallowly emarginate on both sides and triangularly emarginate in middle of posterior margin, with the portions between lateral and middle emarginations acute at apices and extending over apices of latero-apical angles.
Destribution ( Fig. 36 View FIGURE 36 ). China (Sichuan).
Remarks. The aedeagus of this species was illustrated by Švihla (2005). Here, the female reproductive system and abdominal sternite VIII are illustrated and described for the first time.
