Similar with male, but darker than male. Ovipositor ( Fig. 18 ) small, black. Cercus short, fleshy, beneath with a broad lobe; hypogynial valve as long as cercus, golden yellow. Type material. Holotype male, Guizhou: Libo, Maolan, Banzhai (N 25°14ʹ, E 107°02ʹ, 490 m ), 2010. V. 28 , Yan Li. Paratype 1 female , same data as holotype . Distribution. China (Guizhou). Remarks. This species is very different from any other species of the subgenus, but slightly closer to D. ( S .) postica Brunetti, 1912 , from which it can be separated by presence of macrotrichia on the extreme out ends of cells r3 to m1 of the wing and forked posterior crest of the clasper of gonostylus. In D. ( S .) postica , the cells of the wing are bare, with the macrotrichia only present along R and veins beyond the cord; posterior crest of the clasper of gonostylus is pointed ( Joseph 1975 ). Etymology. Name of the new species refers to the forked posterior crest of the clasper of gonostylus.
