( Figs. 34–42 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ; m–o)
Description. Body length male 3.1–3.2 mm. Body (Fig. m) brownish yellow. Head ( Figs. 34 View FIGURES 34 – 42 , m) significantly narrower than pronotum, anterior margin angulately produced. Crown ( Fig. 34 View FIGURES 34 – 42 , m) with round red preapical spot medially, and other little dark spots around it. Eyes (Figs. m–o) black. Face (Fig. o) long and narrow, anteclypeus and 4/5 of frontoclypeus brownish yellow, rest of frontoclypeus whitish yellow, with two ivory yellow preapical streaks. Pronotum ( Figs. 34 View FIGURES 34 – 42 , m) with anterior margin milky yellow, median part and posterior margin darker, yellowish brown. Mesonotum ( Figs. 34 View FIGURES 34 – 42 , m), almost as long as length of pronotum. Fore wing ( Figs. 35 View FIGURES 34 – 42 , m, n) yellowish white, with two longitudinal red stripes, outer (4th) apical cell very small.
Abdominal apodemes ( Fig. 36 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) extremely small, not extended beyond hind margin of 3rd sternite.
Male genitalia. Pygofer lobe ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) broad, with rounded caudal margin, several long macrosetae grouped at basal lower angle, short rigid microsetae situated near caudal margin on inner surface, sparse long fine setae and well developed microtrichia on lateral surface. Pygofer dorsal appendage ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) with line of weakness at base but not movably articulated with pygofer lobe, narrowing towards apex, slightly curved ventrad. Anal tube ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) with basal processes, tapering towards apex. Subgenital plate ( Fig. 38 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) distinctly widened subbasally, several short peglike setae forming continuous row along upper margin, 3 basal macrosetae on outer surface, apex pocketlike. Style ( Fig. 39 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) with two pointed apex short, toothlike. Aedeagus ( Figs. 40, 41 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) with pair of processes arising from base of shaft ventrally, much shorter than shaft. Preatrium long, with large single basal process, extended ventrad. Dorsal apodeme short. Gonopore ( Figs. 40, 41 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) subapical, ventral. Connective ( Fig. 42 View FIGURES 34 – 42 ) U-shaped.
Specimens examined. Holotype ♂: China, Guizhou Prov., Bijie, Bailidujuan, 15 October 2007, coll. Qiongzhang Song. Paratypes: 2♂♂, same data as holotype.
Diagnosis. This species can be distinguished from all the other species by its aedeagus having a single process on the preatrium and a pair of basal processes which are shorter than the shaft, and by the small spoon-shaped abdominal apodemes.
Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from the Latin word “ cucullatus ” referring to the small spoonshaped abdominal apodemes characteristic for this species.
