Aedeagus, connective and style, lateral view; 10. Aedeagus, connective and style, ventral view; 11. Aedeagus, lateral view; 12. Connective, ventral view; 13. Style, lateral view. Male pygofer ( Fig. 7 ) triangular, longer than high, attenuate caudally, with elongate, slender ventral process arising near base. Subgenital plate ( Fig. 8 ) elongate, with some fine setae on inside submargin and several long setae near apex. Aedeagus ( Figs 9–11 ) somewhat bulbous; distal half compressed, recurved dorsally, without posterior projection near base of shaft. Other male genitalia characteristics as in Figs 7–13 . Female slightly longer than male; general coloration similar to that of male. Sternite VII ( Fig. 14 ) similar to inverted triangle, posterior margin with small median tooth. First valvulae ( Figs 15–16 ) elongate, curved dorsad towards apex, dorsal sculpturing indistinctly concatenate, ventral sculpturing imbricate. Second valvulae ( Figs 17–18 ) sigmoid, slender in basal 2/3, apex with dorsal teeth more numerous, prominent and closely spaced. Other genitalia characteristics as shown in Figs 14–18 . Measurement. Length (including tegmen): ♂ , 6.3–6.5mm ; ♀ , 6.4–6.7mm . Type material. Holotype ♂ , CHINA : Yunnan, Longling, 10 June 2011 , coll. Li Yujian ( GUGC ).

The species name is derived from the Latin word flavidus (flavid), indicating the color of clavus of the forewings. Remarks. This species resembles Subulatus bipunctatus Yang & Zhang , but it can be distinguished by the shape of its aedeagus and little scaly bumps only on dorsal side.
