Descriptive notes.
Male. Aedeagus: basal piece feebly longer than dorsal plate of each paramere (Fig. 6A-C View Figure 6 ); ventral process of each paramere stout and obviously bent inwards apically in ventral view (Fig. 6A View Figure 6 ), inclining ventrally in lateral view (Fig. 5C View Figure 5 ); dorsal plates of parameres obviously longer than ventral processes (Fig. 5A, C View Figure 5 ), with apical margins rounded (Fig. 5B View Figure 5 ); laterophyse feebly longer than ventral process, with apices acute and directing dorso-outwards (Fig. 5A, C View Figure 5 ).
Female. Internal organ of reproductive system (Fig. 13A View Figure 13 ): spermatheca feebly longer than diverticulum; accessory gland nearly as long as spermatheca.
Abdominal sternite VIII (Fig. 17A View Figure 17 ): triangular emarginations in middle and on both sides of posterior margin, lateral emarginations obviously deeper and wider than the middle one, the portion between lateral and middle emarginations wide and right-angled at apices, obviously extending over apices of latero-apical angles, which are narrowly rounded.
Distribution.
China (Jiangsu, Shanghai, Jiangxi, Hubei).
Remarks.
The aedeagus of this species was illustrated only in ventral and lateral views by Wittmer (1995). Herein, the aedeagus is illustrated in ventral, dorsal, and lateral views, and the female internal genitalia is illustrated for the first time.
