<paragraphid="C1037AD7B57BF3E302045B802900571F"pageId="34"pageNumber="35">Male sternum. Penultimate sternum unmodified; terminal sternum slightly depressed in middle, apex of sternum weakly but distinctly bending downwards, almost smooth inside sternum depression (Fig. 114). Endophallus (Figs 35D, E, F) short, bent to ventral side across apical lamella, and then turned to aedeagal base; gonopore (gp) located at approx same level as apical lamella. Three distinct lobes recognized: ventral-basal lobe I (vb-I) small, close to base of apical lamella, compressed, upper surface heavily scaled, apex pointed; ventral-basal lobe II (vb-II) large and long, close to apical lamella, pointing to ventral face of median lobe, upper surface strongly chitinized, lower surface membranous, apex capitate and scaled; ventral-apical lobe (va) at right side of vb-II, its main body strongly chitinized, forming a large piece with notched apex; right lobe (rl) membranous, very small and indistinct. Female genitalia. Spermatheca with seminal canal approx three times as long as receptaculum; receptaculum capitate (Fig. 57), club approx half length of receptaculum; seminal canal inserted at base of common oviduct, base of seminal canal sclerotized. Stylomere II with two ensiform setae at outer margin, and one at basal third of inner margin; two very short nematiform setae located in a furrow near apex. Female sternum VIII (Fig. 72B) evenly chitinized; posterior margin with fine and sparse setae, almost straight, notched in middle; middle transparent region small, approx semicircular, without oblique extensions, adjacent to anterior and posterior notches in middle. Female tergum VIII (Fig. 72A) semi-chitinized, posterior region without denser pigmentation, anterior margin without notch in middle, posterior margin evenly arcuate.</paragraph>
The nominotypical subspecies is only recorded from localities near the border between Meigu and Ebian County in south Sichuan (Map 2). It is sympatric with three other
