Diagnosis. Sagriva banna sp. nov. conspicuously differs from S. vittata by its much smaller size and uniformly black body ( Figs 9–12 ). The most important differences between the two species are provided in Table 1 . Table 1. Diagnostic characters of Sagriva vittata Spinola, 1850 and S. banna sp. n. other than genitalia.

Pterygopolymorphism. Only the short-winged morph is known. Its wing is more strongly reduced than in S. vittata , being distinctly shorter than the scutellum, with immovably fused corium and clavus (but with a recognizable remnant of the claval furrow) and lacking membrane ( Figs 9–12 , 20 ). In spite of the stronger degree of reduction, as the difference from the condition seen in S. vittata is not sharp, the morph is termed “brachypterous” as well. Etymology. The specific epithet banna comes from Banna, the short name of the region Sibsongbanna / Sipsongpanna (in Thai) or Xishuangbanna (in Chinese) where the type locality is located. Noun in apposition, ending not to be changed. Distribution. The species is known from the type locality and two additional nearby localities in Yunnan Province , southwestern China , and from a locality in Yen Bai Province , northerncentral Vietnam ( Fig. 57 ).
