Diagnosis.
The species may be distinguished by setose M and Cu1 on wings; the gonostylus deeply bilobed and having a long dorsal lobe with thick megasetae; and a distinct 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). The Chinese specimens examined show no distinct differences from the
type
specimen, but have more megasetae on a wider dorsal lobe, a much wider tegmen and a smaller intercoxal lobe on the hypopygium.
