Diagnosis.
This species resembles
S. linnanensis
Cheng, Gao & Chen, 2009
from southern
China
in the colour patterns of body (
Fig. 2H
) and male terminalia (
Fig. 11
), but can be distinguished from it by the aedeagus nearly bilobed, with 7 pair of slender processes and thick, long pubescence laterally (
Fig. 11C
); gonopods with 1 suberect lobe-like process bearing several pubescence (
Fig. 11D
). However, the minimum interspecific genetic distance is 3.3% to
S. hirtifoliacea
(
Table 2
).
Description.
Male and Female: Pedicel brown medially, black laterally; first flagellomere nearly black. Palpus yellow basally, brown on distal 1/
3 in
male, brown on distal 2/
3 in
female. Mesonotum dark brown medially, brown laterally (
Fig. 2H
). Katepisternum dark brown on upper part, white-yellow on lower part (
Fig. 2H
). Scutellum black (
Fig. 2H
). Legs dark brown to black, yellow on basal part of fore femora and 2nd to 5th tarsomeres. Fore femur with 3 long setae on distal half of posteroventral surface. All abdominal tergites brown (
Fig. 2H
); all sternites yellowish brown. Male terminalia (
Fig. 11
A–E): Epandrium with approximately 22 setae near posterior portion per side. Surstylus broad in lateral view. Cercus lacking pubescence. Tenth sternite with 1 pair of asymmetric projection sublaterally. Plate between hypandrium and aedeagus with 4 sensilla. Aedeagus composed of 1 bilobed medial process with pubescence. Female terminalia (
Fig. 11
F–H): Epiproct and cercus with setae, lacking pubescence. Hypoproct pubescent medially, with dense setae along lateral and posterior margins. Eighth sternite glabrous, with a pair of small setae near posterior margin.
