( Fig. 7P ; Table 1) Holotype . Female [IOZ(E) 1340339], China : Shanxi Prov. , Jincheng City , Qinshui County , Zhengzhuang Town , Yangjiahe Village , Northern Demonstration Farm , 1000–1200m , 1991.IX.12 , Coll. Liu Jupeng. Diagnosis. Small-sized compared to the congeners in the subgenus Atlanticus , but larger than A. minor sp. n .. Ovipositor narrow (1.0 mm wide in middle), twice the length of pronotum, with apical half moderately recurved. Hind femur twice the length of pronotum. Description. Holotype . Female. Disc of prozona slightly convex, and metazona slightly slanting from midline to lateral carinae. Pronotum narrowest in proximal one-third, then gradually ampliate caudad. Lateral lobes of pronotum slightly longer than deep, deepest in middle; anterior margin very slightly concave, posterior margin oblique with a slight humeral concavity, ventral margin slanting caudad to posterior angle. Tegmen not produced dorsally. Apical half of hind femur with 1–3 ventral interior spines. Fore tibia with 3–4 dorsal spines on exterior margin and 6 ventral spines on both margins. Middle tibia with 2–4 exterior and 1–3 interior spines on dorsal margins, 6 ventral spines on both margins. Hind tibia with 19 exterior and 21 interior spines on dorsal margins. Ovipositor twice the length of pronotum, with moderately recurved apical half (over 30º angle). Proximal quarter of ovipositor narrowed from base, remainder of equal width, with upper margin slightly obliquely truncated in apex. Subgenital plate distinctly transverse, emarginate in apical one-quarter, forming two obtuse triangular lobes. Coloration. Generally dark brown. Face, occiput and a narrow band along ventral margin of lateral lobes of pronotum yellowish brown with numerous reddish brown dots. The following parts shining blackish brown: outer surface of two basal antennal joints; fastigium frontis; lateral surfaces of fastigium verticis; upper portion of pleurae; a little proximal portion of anterior surface of hind femora. The following parts are shining dark brown: pronotal disc, lateral lobes of pronotum except a narrow brown fascia, and abdominal tergite. Legs brown with reddish brown numerous spots and indefinite striation. Ventral spines of hind femur black. Male unknown. Notes. This new species differs from the other species in that the lateral lobes of the pronotum are deepest in the middle. It most closely resembles A. ruichengi sp. n. in the body shape, but differs in the shape of pronotum and ovipositor. Etymology. The new species is named for the type locality. Distribution. China ( Shanxi ).
