Pronotum cylindrical, anterior margin angular in middle, median keel distinct, not cut by hind transverse sulcus, lateral keels absent. Length of interspace of mesosternum longer than its length of the narrowest part( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 d), lateral lobes of metasternum separated. Tegmina shorter, reaching the hind margin of first abdominal tergite, length 2.3 times its width, covered 2/5 tympanum ( Fig.1 View FIGURE 1 f). Upper keel of hind femur smooth, length of hind femur 3.6 times its maximum width, the end of lower knee lobes angular.

Tegmina shorter, not reaching hind margin of the 1st abdominal tergite, length 2.1 times its width. Length of hind femur 3.4 times its maximum width. Cercus short-conical, not reaching end of epiproct. Length of subgenital plate shorter than width ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 j), both sides of subgenital plate straight. Ovipositor valve slender, apex curved and acute, outer margin smooth.
Coloration: Body brown. Antennae yellowish-brown. Pronotum yellowish-brown, with a black longitudinal band along median keel. Tegmina brown. Hind femur with two black band on upper side. Hind tibia yellow, upper side blue. Abdomen yellowish-brown, with dark broad longitudinal stripe on both sides. Subgenital plate brown in male.
Measurements (mm): Length of body: ♂ 29.9−32.1, ♀ 38.3-39.6. Length of tegmina: ♂ 4.5−5.8, ♀ 5.1–5.6. Length of pronotum: ♂ 9.7−11.1, ♀ 12.3–12.5. Length of hind femur: ♂ 13.8−14.8, ♀ 17.1–17.8.
Diagnosis. The new species Haplotropis xiai sp. nov. is similar to Haplotropis brunneriana Saussure, 1888 . The major differences are listed in Table 1 View TABLE 1 .
