Dunnius trifasciatus (Xiong & Liu, 1995)
comb. nov.
Acesines trifasciatus
Xiong & Liu, 1995: 263-264, fig. 1a-d (original description). Holotype: ♂, Yunnan (Mengzhe), China, 19.VI.1984, Xiong Jiang leg. (Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Science).
Acesines trifaciatus
Xiong & Liu, 1995: 266 (lapsus calami).
Acesines trifaciatus
:
Rider et al. (2002)
: 135 (Chinese distribution);
Rider (2006)
: 259 (catalogue);
Li et al. (2015)
: 267 (distribution in China).
Type material.
Not examined. The description was based on a single male specimen (holotype) Yunnan (Mengzhe), China and is deposited in Kunming Institute of Zoology, the Chinese Academy of Science as per the original description.
Note.
See the note under
D. laticeps
comb. nov. This species was originally described in
Acesines
Stal
, but is similar to members of
Dunnius
in external morphology and male genitalia in the shapes of paramere, genital capsule (shape of caudolateral lobes, ventral and dorsal rims), and shape of phallus, which are similar to that of
D. barpetensis
sp. nov. The absence of metasternal notch and the short basal abdominal tubercle, which is not in contact with metasternum (see under the note of
D. laticeps
), is evident from the description and ventral habitus image of this species by
Fan (2011
: 575, fig. 221). This also indicates that
Acesines trifasciatus
is congeneric with
Dunnius
and hence transferred from
Acesines
to
Dunnius
in this paper.
