New species of macropsine leafhopper genus Pedionis Hamilton (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae) from China, with a key to Chinese species Author Zhang, Bin text Zootaxa 2010 2484 53 60 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.195495 9173db71-b1c2-4d02-8ef5-c3e88218a45c 1175-5326 195495 Pedionis (Pedionis) spinata sp. nov. ( Figs. 1 C–D, 3 B, 5 A–F) Description. Length. Male 3.9 mm . Coloration. Pale brown with dark brown spots. Anteclypeus dark brown in apical half. Pronoutm ( Fig. 1 C, D) darker than head. Scutellum ( Fig. 1 C) with central area darker than lateral and caudal areas. Forewing ( Fig. 1 C, D) brownish with apical areas of claval vein, apex of clavus and irregular spot near apex of corium, dark brown; venation dark brown with white spots. Legs brown with paler markings. Morphology. Body comparatively slender and small. Clypeus expanded; anteclypeus tapered. Pronotum as long as scutellum. Hind tibial spinulation R1 11, R2 9, R3 5. FIGURE 5. Pedionis(Pedionis) spinata sp. nov. A, pygophore, subgenital plates and valve, lateral view; B, style, lateral view; C, aedeagus and dorsal connective, lateral view; D, aedeagus and dorsal connective, caudal view; E, connective, lateral view; F, connective, dorsal view. Male genitalia. Pygophore ( Fig. 5 A) without caudo-dorsal spine usually found in Pedionis , setae on ventral margin relatively stout. Subgenital plate, style and connective similar to that in P. garuda . Aedeagus ( Figs. 5 C, D) shaft with triangular lobe-like projection on dorsal margin, with subapical lateral expansion ventro-posterior view, with pair of small spine-like processes subapically; dorsal connective simple, distal part curved with marginal serrations. Female. Unknown. Distribution. China : Hainan (Mt. Wuzhi) Material examined. Holotype . Male, China : Hainan province, Mt. Wuzhi (18°77΄N, 109°50΄E), 1200 m , 15 July 2007 , collected by Zhang Bin. Remarks. Pedionis spinata resembles P. rufoscutellata Huang & Viraktamath externally, but differs in having the posterior margin of the pygophore truncate apically without a ventral process; and subapical margin of the aedeagal shaft with a large triangular expansion along the ventral margin. Etymology. The specific name refers to spine-like process of the aedeagal shaft.
