Female. Supplementary description. Male ( Fig. 5A , 6A ). Aedeagus ( Figs 7 C–E), nearly symmetrical, abdominal ventrite VIII ( Fig. 7G ) deeply split medially at posterior margin and with long dense hair at hind margin. Spiculum gastrale ( Fig. 7F ) not symmetrical, short, with large apical lobes. Female ( Fig. 5B , 6B ) similar to males. Ventrite VIII ( Fig. 7H ) slightly split medially at posterior margin and covered with long dense hairs. spiculum ( Fig. 7H ) tortuous near straight, apex rounded and slightly dilated. Apex of ovipositor ( Fig. 7I ) with one long hair and two pairs of much shorter hairs. Distribution. Myanmar , China : Yunnan . Remarks. Hexarhopalus ( H. ) sculptilis Kaszab, 1960 was originally described from Myanmar and recorded from Yunnan , China by Ren and Xu, 2011 . All studies lack description of the genital characters. We hereby provide the supplementary descriptions with genital characters. Furthermore, the Chinese specimens display two color types : bicolourable legs with dark brown body ( Fig. 5 ) and concordant black body ( Fig. 6 ). However, they were collected from the same location and possessed the same type of the genitalia.
