Diagnosis.
The species is distinguished by bare M and Cu wing veins; more than ten unusually slender megasetae on the very basally located dorsal lobe on the gonostylus; and a setose intercoxal lobe on the hypopygium.
Distribution.
China
(Yunnan,
Fig. 24
),
Burma
(Kambaiti).
Remarks.
This species was first recorded in Kambaiti,
Burma
(Hippa & Vilkamaa 1991) and is new to
China
(Yunnan province). It doesn’t show distinct variation between the
holotype
and the Chinese specimens but the number of setae on the basal segment of the palpus and r-m on wings, which is two and
0–1 in
the
holotype
, and 2– 3 and two in the Chinese specimens.
