FIGURES 114–119 . The male of Neozavrelia tygda sp. nov. 114—head and maxillary palps; 115—antenna; 116–117—wing; 118–119—hypopygium. Scale bar 50 μm. Hypopygium ( Figs 110–113 , 118–119 ). Anal tergite with H-shaped bands, between which microtrichia are located in the form of a mesh structure, and with 5–6 lateral setae, free-microtrichia areas present on the sides of anal tergite bands. The anal point (20 μm long and 20 μm wide in the base and 9 μm wide on the apex) broad, triangular rounded apically, dorsally cover with 9 strong spinulae (4–8 μm long) and bearing 2–3 lateral setae on each side of the anal point; microtrichia located between the anal tergite bands form a mesh pattern ( Fig. 111 ). Gonocoxite 90 μm long, along the inner margin with 3 setae. The width of the transverse sternapodema 50 µm . Phallopodema 88 μm long. Superior volsella elongated oval-shaped (40 μm long, 14 μm wide), bearing 2 median setae and 1 strong inner seta on a tubercle, and 5–6 fine dorsal setae, microtrichia absent ( Figs 112–113 ). Digitus 12 μm long, reaching of the medial edge of the superior volsella. Stem of the median volsella straight 28 μm long, bearing slender lamelliform setae; total length of the median volsella 40 μm. Inferior volsella 70 μm long, with 10–12 setae. Gonostylus straight, 60 μm long and expanded at about median 20 μm. HR 1.5. Pupa and larva unknown. Remarks. The male of Neozavrelia tygda sp. nov. is more similar to the N. oyabeparvulus ( Sasa et al ., 1988 ) but differs from the latter by the presence of a reticulate structure of microtrichia on tergite IX and a triangular shape of the anal point (see Table 12 ).
