Wuyishan), on  Indocalamus tessellatus(Munro) Keng, 24.v.2004(Guo K) [No. 14804–1–1–1].  Paratypes. CHINA: 1 apterous vivipara, [No. 14804]; 4 apterous viviparae, on  Indocalamus tessellatus(Munro) Keng, 24.v.2004(Guo K) [No. 14774]; 6 apterous viviparae, on  Indocalamus tessellatus(Munro) Keng, 23.v.2004(Guo K) [No. 14792]; 3 apterous viviparae and 3 apterous viviparae ( BMNH), on  Indocalamus tessellatus(Munro) Keng, 23.v.2004(Guo K) [No. 14786]; 2 apterous viviparae, on  Indocalamus tessellatus(Munro) Keng, 23.v.2004(Guo K) [No. 14791]; 3 apterous viviparae, on one kind of bamboo, 19.vii.2003(Qiao GX & Huang XL) [No. 14535]; 1 apterous vivipara, 12.vi.2011(Chen J, Liu QH & Li XT) [No. 26876]; 1 apterous vivipara, Guizhou (Kuankuoshui), on one kind of bamboo, 9.vi.2010(Su XM) [No. 24596]; 1 apterous vivipara, Guizhou (Kuankuoshui), on one kind of bamboo, 14.viii.2010(Su XM) [No. 25626]; the other information same as holotype.   Distribution. China(Fujian, Guizhou).   Biology. The new species feeds on the underside of the leaf bases of  Indocalamus tessellatus(Munro) Keng (Poaceae), and on another species of bamboo.   Etymology.The new species,  Ceratovacuna angusticornais named following the shape of its horns, “ angusti- (Latin word)” means narrow, “ corna(Latin word)” means horn.   Remarks.The new species is most similar to  Ceratovacuna silvestriiin the wax gland plates between eyes composed of 8–16 facets and abdominal tergites I–VI with pleural wax gland plates, but differs from  C. silvestriias follows: frontal horns pointed (  C. silvestrii: frontal horns blunt), and diameter of wax gland facets on dorsum of head shorter than 0.50 times of those on abdominal tergites (  C. silvestrii: similar to those on abdominal tergites).
