Remarks.
This species is similar to
Mydaea ancilloides
Xue, 1992, but differs from it in the following features: male arista short-plumose, longest hair shorter than width of postpedicel; lower 3/5 of frons without frontal setae; parafacial approximately 2/5 of postpedicel in width; sternite 5 lateral lobe short and basal part near quadrate.
Etymology.
The specific name refers to its type locality, Wusu town.
