( Figs 15 , 28 ) Type material. CHINA , Yunnan : Holotype ♂ , Bubang Town ( 21.60°N , 101.59°E ), Xishuangbanna , 656 m , 22.VII.2014 , leg. KJ Teng et al ., slide No. GW 14194. Diagnosis. The new species is characterized in the male genitalia by the cucullus obtusely convex at distal 1/3, and the cornutus consisting of three strong spines. It is similar to S. dolichantha sp. nov. superficially, and the differences between the two species are stated in the diagnosis of the latter species. FIGURES 16−21.

Uncus wide at base, gradually narrowed to apex, with long setae laterally; apex straight, approximately 1/3 width of base. Gnathos wide at base, gradually narrowed to apex, scobinate in distal half. Tegumen bifurcate from anterior half; lateral arm uniformly wide. Valva narrow basally, parallel to cucullus; cucullus sub-elliptical, length approximately 2 times of maximum width, dorsal margin obliquely straight along basal 2/3, obtusely convex at distal 1/3, ventral margin obtuse, apex rounded; inner process short, digitate; costa roundly convex; sacculus banded, approximately 1/3 length of valva, gradually narrowed from distal 1/4 to apex, apex pointed, free from cucullus. Juxta semi-rounded, straight on posterior margin, rounded on anterior margin; anellar lobes subelliptical, approximately twice length of juxta, with short setae. Aedeagus approximately same length as valva, basal 3/4 almost evenly wide, tapered from distal 1/4 to apex, with a sclerotized plate near base, distal 1/4 produced to a thin club ventrally; cornutus consisting of three strong spines linked basally, located at middle ( Fig. 28a ). Female unknown. Distribution. China ( Yunnan ). Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from the Latin spin- and cornutus , referring to the cornutus consisting of three strong spines.
