Mesosoma . Length of mesosoma 1.5 x as long as its height (Fig. 8D ); transverse mesopleural groove narrow, crenulate; mesopleuron above transverse mesopleural groove coarsely rugose anteriorly and smooth posteriorly, below groove largely punctated (Fig. 8D ); notauli wide, deep and coarsely crenulate; middle lobe of mesoscutum smooth arterially, otherwise transversely punctate-rugose, lateral lobes largely punctate-rugose (Fig. 8C ); scutel-lar sulcus complete, moderately narrow and crenulate; scutellum coarsely rugose and shallowly concave medially, anteriorly distinctly above level of mesoscutum; metanotum slightly convex, rugose (Fig. 8C ); propodeum punctate-rugose (Fig. 8C ); posterior propodeal carina distinctly arched, narrow lamelliform, foramen approximately 1.3 x as wide as high medially. Wings . Fore wing: vein 1-M 1.4 x as long as vein 1-SR; second submarginal cell 1.3 x as long as third submarginal cell (Fig. 8A ). Metasoma . First tergite 0.4 x as long as its apical width, smooth and with shallow but wide depression medially (Fig. 8E ); second tergite largely smooth and finely punctate laterally; following tergites moderately punctate (Fig. 8E ); first sternite sparse punctate and concave laterally; second sternite slightly convex, densely and finely punctate; lateral sides from third to fith sternites and anterior of fourth sternite without punctation, otherwise moderately punctate (Fig. 8F ). Colour . Black; antenna largely brownish (except apex and scapus) (Fig. 7A ); outer orbita with pale yellow stripes, inner orbita with brownish short strips, malar space yellow brown patches; lateral corner of clypeus brownish; mandibles brown to dark brown, with basal pale patches (Figs 7B , 8B ); pair of ivory triangular patches on middle lobe of mesoscutum anterior-laterally, pair of ivory to brownish patches on antero-lateral margin of scutellum, metanotum white with brownish patches (Fig. 8C ); palpi brown (Fig. 8B ), tegulae dark brown (Fig. 8D ); about posteriorly half of first tergite ivory; margin of other tergites with ivory to brownish stripes (Fig. 8E ); fifth tergite with two elongated ivory patches media-posteriorly (Fig. 8E ); first sternite dark brown posteriorly (Fig. 8F ); coxa and trochanter of hind leg mainly white; tarsi and tibia of fore leg mainly yellow to brownish (Fig. 7A ); pterostigma dark brown; apical half of marginal cell of fore wing largely infuscate as area below it, remainder of wing membrane subhyaline (Figs 7A , 8A ). Male. Unknown. Etymology. The specific epithet originates from " albus " (Latin for "white" ) and " dorsalis " (Latin for "dorsal" ) with reference to the white dorsal part of the pronotum. Material examined. Holotype China : ; Yunnan , Mt. Gaoligong , Dulong River , Qinlangdang Management and Protection Station , 1181 m , 27°41'6.73"N , 98°16'25.64"E ; 15.V-15.VI.2020 , Lang Yi leg., MT, SYS-BM En-419023 (deposited in SYSBM); GenBank : OM057972 . Distribution. China (Yunnan). Collected at 1181 m. Comments. This species is close to T. eurysoma and it would run to that taxon (couplet 17) in the revised key of Tan et al. (2017) , but can be distinguished by having largely brownish antenna, dorsally white pronotum, pale and more elongate fore tibia, less sculptured vertex, and second sternite without ivory stripe. Part of key to Chinese species of the genus Taeniogonalos Schulz was revised to include T. eurysoma Chen & van Achterberg, 2020.
17 Second metasomal sternite of female less convex medially and in lateral view its ventral border gradually sloping posteriorly, strongly shiny medially and third sternite smooth anteriorly or nearly so; second sternite of male evenly slightly convex medio-posteriorly; vertex often strongly shiny 18
- Second sternite of female strongly convex medially and in lateral view its ventral border distinctly sloping posteriorly, moderately shiny medially and third sternite distinctly punctate anteriorly; second sternite of male slightly flattened medio-posteriorly; vertex moderately shiny 20
18 Propodeum comparatively narrow, almost triangular in dorsal view (especially male, less so in female) and with nearly straight lateral margins; outer orbita black; supra-antennal elevations about half as long as scapus T. alticola (Tsuneki, 1991)
- Propodeum somewhat wider, more oval in dorsal view and lateral margins curved; outer orbita with pale stripes; supra-antennal elevations smaller (about 0.2 times as long as scapus) 19
19 Antenna mainly blackish; pronotum dorsally black; fore tibia comparatively dark and short; metasomal segments rather wide; second sternite with ivory stripe T. eurysoma Chen & van Achterberg, 2020
- Antenna largely brownish (Fig. 7A ); pronotum dorsally white (Fig. 8C ); fore tibia comparatively pale and more elongate (Fig. 7A ); vertex less sculptured (Fig. 7C ); metasomal segments comparatively elongate (Fig. 8E ); second sternite without ivory stripe T. albidorsalis Zhang & Chen, sp. nov.
20 Vertex with elongate brownish patches; third and fourth metasomal tergites very coarsely punctate; metanotum with a pair of yellow spots medially; third sternite coarsely and densely punctate medio-posteriorly (male) or latero-posteriorly (female) in front of membranous border; [propodeal foramen comparatively wide and less arched]. T. formosana (Bischoff, 1913)
- Vertex entirely black or rarely with small brownish patches; third and fourth metasomal tergites usually superficially punctate, rarely nearly as coarse as in T. formosana ; metanotum black medially and at most with a pair of lateral yellow spots; third sternite usually more spaced and finer punctate posteriorly T. taihorina (Bischoff, 1914)
