Holotype , male, China , Hubei province, Dashennongjia Nature Reserve, Muyu, E slope, 2000 m , 12.–15. vi. 1997 , Bolm ( LMBC ). Diagnosis. This species is similar to M. gracilis in the shape of the aedeagus, but it differs in the short lamella of the antennomere 3 and the slim narrowed part in the apical portion of the median lobe in ventral view ( Figs 40, 51 ). Additionally, M. muyuensis differs from M. mucronatus by the shape of the antennomere 3 and the relatively straight basal part of the median lobe in lateral view ( Figs 39, 51 ). Description ( holotype ). Body small, dark brown, pronotum and elytra dark red ( Fig. 26 ). Head with flat antennal tubercles. Antennae overlapping midlength of elytra when inclined, antennomeres 3–11 lamellate ( Fig. 51 ). Pronotum transverse, nearly trapezoid, anterior angles blunt, posterior angles acute ( Fig. 26 ). Scutellum dark red, parallel-sided, with straight posterior margin. Elytra widened in distal quarter, covered with short, dense, dark red pubescence; elytral costa 2 much stouter than remaining three ones; costa 3 inconspicuous posteriorly. Aedeagus without paramerae, median lobe slender, slightly curved at base; subapical portion widened, gradually constricted distad; apical part tube-shaped, with prominent rounded lamella at apex ( Figs 39, 40 ). Measurements. Length 10.35 mm, width at humeri 2.20 mm, pronotum length/width 1.55/1.80 mm. Distribution. China (Hubei), known only from the type locality. Etymology. The specific name refers to the type locality (Muyu) in the province of Hubei, China .
