( Figs. 1 A–E, 5)

Yang and Wang 1992: 409 (Original: Chrysopidia ; type locality: China (Hunan: Sangzhi); Yang et al. 2005: 125 ( Chrysopidia ( Chrysopidia )).

Diagnosis. Head with brownish genal stripe connected with clypeal markings; scape without stripe. Pronotum with faint medio-lateral spots; pretarsal claw with basal dilation about half as long as claw hook, ventral margin of basal dilation straight apically. Forewing with indistinct markings; gradate crossveins pale green. Tergum 9+ecroprocts with dorsally projected peak in lateral view.

Type material. Holotype Ƌ, China, Hunan, Zhangjiajie (ffiţfl), Sangzhi (ƗĦ), Tianpingshan (Ƒ ṮƜ), 1450 m, 110°17′E 29°41′N, 1988.VIII.14, Wang Shuyong ( CAU) . Paratypes 1♀, China, Hunan, Sangzhi (ƗĦ)· Tianpingshan (Ƒ ṮƜ), 1450 m, 110°17′E 29°41′N, 1988.VIII.13 , Yang Xingke ( CAU) .

Distribution. China (Hunan).

Remarks. Based on our reexamination of the type materials of Chrysopidia holzeli , it can be confirmed that this species has the typical characters of Anachrysa , e.g., three gradate series crossveins, the small reddish brown prestigmatic spots, and the reddish brown spots on distal cubital cell (dcc). Therefore, we transfer this species to Anachrysa . Because the genitalia of these types are missing and no additional specimen of this species is available, information on the genital characters of this species could not be updated at present.
