It is most similar to + +R. pubescens + +(Fig. +5 C, D +), + +R. tsurakiana + +(Fig. +5 E, F +), + +R. ligurica +Oláh & Vinçon, 2021 + +(in +Oláh et al. 2021 +, figs 55–57 therein), + +R. harmasa +Oláh & Vinçon, 2021 + +(in +Oláh et al. 2021 +, figs 52–54 therein), and + +R. abruzzica +Oláh & Vinçon, 2021 + +(in +Oláh et al. 2021 +, figs 49–51 therein), but + +R. lignumvallis + +sp. nov. +is distinguishable from these species by the shape of tergum X, the dorsal arm of the phallic apparatus in lateral and ventral views, the shape of the aedeagus and parameres, and the second segment of the inferior appendages. + + +The dorsal surface of segment X is convex in all these species but narrower and higher in the new species, + +R. tsurakiana + +, and + +R. harmasa + +. In dorsal view, however, the new species has a slightly membranous, mesally notched, and inflated segment X, while segment X in + +R. tsurakiana + +appears flatter. Additionally, the dorsal branch of tergum X is rounded and broader in the new species, while it is narrower in + +R. tsurakiana + +and + +R. harmasa + +. + + +The dorsal appendix of the phallic apparatus in the new species is longer than the aedeagus and the parameres (Fig. +4 D +). This also occurs in + +R. harmasa + +, + +R. ligurica + +, + +R. pubescens + +, and + +R. tsurakiana + +but not in + +R. abruzzica + +. However, the shape of the dorsal appendix in lateral view in the new species is digitate and slightly curved dorsad, whereas + +R. harmasa + +has a slightly wider apical half, + +R. ligurica + +has a low bump mesally on its dorsal surface, and + +R. tsurakiana + +has a straight and flat dorsal appendix. In + +R. abruzzica + +, the dorsal appendage is broad and medially widened in lateral view. In comparison to + +R. lignumvallis + +sp. nov. +(Figs +4 D +, +5 A, B +), + +R. tsurakiana + +, and + +R. abruzzica + +, the dorsal appendix of the phallic apparatus is much longer and clearly exceeds segment X in dorsal view in + +R. harmasa + +, + +R. pubescens + +, and + +R. ligurica + +. In ventral view, the dorsal appendix is straight and rounded apically in the new species (Fig. +4 E +), slightly inflated on the apical half and rounded apically in + +R. harmasa + +, almost straight and truncate apically in + +R. ligurica + +, constricted basally and truncate apically in + +R. tsurakiana + +, and rectangular in + +R. abruzzica + +. + + +The aedeagus and parameres in + +R. lignumvallis + +sp. nov. +are most similar to + +R. pubescens + +. However, in lateral view, the tip of the aedeagus in the new species is slenderer and slightly more curved apically than in + +R. pubescens + +. In lateral view, the parameres in the new species are broader than in + +R. pubescens + +. In ventral view, the parameres in the new species are club-shaped and curved mesad, while in + +R. pubescens + +, the parameres are digitate and directed posterad. + + +The second segment of the inferior appendages in the new species is triangular, with a straight dorsal margin, while all the other species have a concave dorsal margin (Fig. +4 A +, +5 B +). + + + + +Description. + + + +Adult male +. + +Specimen in ethanol, mostly denuded; dorsally brown, ventrally light brown. Legs light brown with slightly darker tibial spurs. Head with frontal setal wart triangular; antennal setal wart subtriangular and smaller than frontal setal wart; posterior setal warts oval and connected to ocellar setal warts via a raised cuticular “ bridge ” (see +Schmid, 1970 +; pl. I, fig. 1). Forewing length ( +8.8 mm +, +N += 1) mostly denuded, with sparse, very short light brown setae and golden brown microtrichia. Hind wings also mostly denuded, with slightly longer light brown setae. Forewing (Fig. +3 A +) with crossveins connecting costal (C) and subcostal (Sc) veins; subcostal (Sc) and first radial (R +1 +) veins, first (R +1 +) and second radial (R +2 +) veins ( +r +), fifth radial (R +5 +) and first medial (M) veins ( +r-m +), first medial (M) and first cubital (Cu 1) veins ( +m-cu +), and first cubital (Cu 1) and second cubital (Cu 2) veins.

Dorsal surface of segment X membranous, slightly inflated, shallowly notched mesally in dorsal view (Fig. +4 C +). Dorsal branch of segment X short and rounded in lateral view. Anal sclerites partially fused to each other basally and to segment X, in lateral view, directed ventrad. First article of inferior appendages (Fig. +4 A +) rectangular in lateral view, slightly broader basally than apically; in ventral view (Fig. +4 B +), slightly broader apically than basally, with a small setose bump basally on mesal surface. Second article of inferior appendages (Fig. +4 A +) quadrangular in lateral view, dorsal and ventral margins slightly diverging, posterodorsal margin straight, at a 130 ° angle to dorsal margin; in ventral view (Fig. +4 B +), mitton-shaped, mesal margin with very short, peg-like setae basally and longer setae apically. Phallic apparatus (Fig. +4 D +) with dorsal appendix straight in lateral view, slightly curved dorsad, rounded apically, longer than parameres and aedeagus; in ventral view, straight, lateral margins slightly sinuous, rounded apically. Parameres in lateral view (Fig. +4 D +) broader than aedeagus, slightly curved posterodorsad, ventral margin straight, dorsal margin slightly sinuous, rounded apically; in ventral view (Fig. +4 E +), club-shaped, directed mesad.
