The Psilotreta Banks, 1899 of the Dabie Mountains, east central China, with descriptions of two new species (Insecta: Trichoptera: Odontoceridae) Author Qiu, Shuang Author Yan, Yun-jun text European Journal of Taxonomy 2020 2020-02-06 601 1 11 journal article 24121 10.5852/ejt.2020.601 4b59d032-c569-40be-9cb1-64a2b84dc83c 3659438 BE9EA24E-A4D1-41BE-99D9-1A584AE1FD10 Psilotreta furcata sp. nov. urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 445EFA06-FF9A-4775-BAC8-61F93D4C1482 Fig. 2 Diagnosis The male genitalia of this new species resemble those of P. quinlani Kimmins, 1964 , but can be distinguished by the following characters: (1) the median dorsal process of segment X is more than 3 × as long as wide in dorsal view (short in P. quinlani , about as long as wide in dorsal view); (2) ventral branch of lateral process of segment X is simple and slender, directly pointed posteriorly in lateral view (in P. quinlani , ventral branch of lateral process of segment X is more complicated, directed ventrally and reduced to a digitate projection curving posteriorly in lateral view); and (3) superior appendages each round at apex in lateral view (superior appendages of P. quinlani each triangular at apex in lateral view). Etymology The specific name is derived from the Latin ‘furcata’, or English ‘furcate’, referring to the forked median dorsal process of segment X. Material examined Holotype CHINA – Hubei Province • ♂ ; Yingshan County , Tao-hua-chong; 30°59'33.31" N 115°59'45.87" E ; 469 m a.s.l. ; 6 May 2015 ; Qiu Shuang and Liu Tian-yu 1eg.; light sheet trap ; NAU. Paratype CHINA – Hubei Province • 1 ♂ ; same collection data as for holotype; HUST . Description Male HEAD. In anterior view, frons located with pit between antennae, with short dark line extended below pit. Frontogenal compact setal warts slender, in close proximity to compound eyes laterally, and next to pair of wide grooves mesally ( Fig. 2A ). In dorsal view, with dark median dorsal line dissipating before reaching posterior margin, vertexal mediantennal compact setal warts proximal to each other, and smaller than vertexal lateroantennal compact setal warts. Occipital setal warts round, postgenal setal warts digitate. Antennae present with tube-like structure within ( Fig. 2B ). Maxillary palp segments length ratio 1:0.9:1.7:1.5:1.8 ( Fig. 2C ). WINGS. Forewings each 8.9–9.2 mm (n = 2), yellow, round at apex; DC present, fork I about ⅓ longer than fork II, R 4+5 not fused with R 3 , Cu 2 absent; row of setae located close to posterior margin of each forewing. Hind wings with R1 straight, Sc and R2 slightly curved at crossvein Sc-r and r separated, DC absent ( Fig. 2D ). MALE GENITALIA. Tergum IX triangular in dorsal view ( Fig. 2F ), narrow in lateral view ( Fig. 2E ). Sternum IX wide in lateral and ventral views ( Fig. 2E ). Main body of segment X hexagonal in dorsal view ( Fig. 2F ); median dorsal process of segment X narrow in lateral view ( Fig. 2E ), V-shaped in dorsal view ( Fig. 2F ), about 3 × as long as wide; ventral branch of lateral process of segment X narrow, slightly curved in lateral view ( Fig. 2I ), curved mesad at apex in dorsal view ( Fig. 2F ). Intermediate appendage small, with two sharp tips dorsally ( Fig. 2I ). Superior appendages digitate in lateral view ( Fig. 2E ), narrower basally than apically in dorsal view ( Fig. 2F ). Coxopodites thick, slightly narrowed at bases in lateral view ( Fig. 2E ), curved laterad in ventral view ( Fig. 2G ); harpagones about ⅓ as long as coxopodites, apices round, with short round spines ( Fig. 2G ). Phallotheca slightly sclerotized, with apex truncate in lateral view ( Fig. 2H ); parameres long, slightly curved mesally at apices in posterior view ( Fig. 2J ); aedeagus slightly sclerotized ventrally; ventral sclerite of aedeagus narrow, curved at about 90 degrees in lateral view ( Fig. 2H ) and spatulate in dorsal view ( Fig. 2K ).
