(1) Genitalia, ventral view; (2) Genitalia, lateral view; (3) Epandrium, cercus, posterior view; (4) Aedeagus, gonite, hypandrium and phallpodeme, ventral view. Scale bar of Fig, 1–4 = 0.15 mm. Abdomen brownish black, with sparse brownish yellow microtomentum. Male genitalia ( Fig. 1, 2 ): epandrium in posterior view ( Fig. 3 , 10 ) approximately circular, dorsal arch narrow, widened on ventral 1/4, wider portion tapered, subapical with two moderate setae, ventral apex acute and with 1 strong seta (broken in Fig. 3 ); cercus in posterior view ( Fig. 3 , 10 ) broadly lunate, with slender process ventrally; aedeagus in lateral view ( Fig. 13 ) wide basally, curved and gradually tapered to pointed apex; phallpodeme in lateral view ( Fig. 13 ) triangular, extended portion wide, oriented toward hypandrium; gonite in lateral view ( Fig. 13 ) slender and long; hypandrium in ventral view ( Fig. 4 , 12 ) with truncate anterior margin, extended arms slender. Distribution. Oriental: China ( Hunan ); Japan (Ryukyu Islands). Palaearctic: China ( Henan ); Japan ( Hokkaido , Honshu, Shikoku), Russia (Far East). Remarks. This species is distinctly different from H. quinquepunctata Zhang & Yang from the Oriental China by having a wing with nine white spots. In H. quinquepunctata Zhang & Yang , the wing has five white spots ( Zhang & Yang [2009] ).
