Tinodes yangae
Peng & Sun
,
n. sp.
(
Figs 4a–4d
)
Description:
Length of each forewing
3.5–3.6 mm
(n = 1). Specimens in alcohol with compound eyes black, legs and thorax dark brown, abdomen brown dorsally, pale yellow ventrally, wings light brown.
Male genitalia:
In lateral view, sternum IX nearly oblong, with each anterodorsal angles produced into projections (
Fig. 4c
). Tergum IX, segment X and horizontal part of inner branch of phallic sheath process fused into a complex, originating about halfway along upper margin of sternum IX, (
Fig. 4c
), vertical part of inner branch of phallic sheath process paired, each with three spines apically (
Figs 4b, 4c
); lateral branch of phallic sheath process paired and sparsely setose, each arched in lateral view and elongate tongue-shaped in dorsal view (
Figs 4b, 4c
). Superior appendages slightly S-shaped, issuing from protrusion of sternum IX in lateral view (
Fig. 4c
), extending dorsocaudad beyond apex of phallus (
Fig. 4b
). Phallus tapering from base to apex, in lateral view its basal half forming angle at about 90° with distal half (
Fig. 4c
). In dorsal view, phallic guide with apex expanded into a disc (
Fig. 4d
), in lateral view with apex bifurcate, dorsal branch straight upwards and acute, ventral branch triangular (
Fig. 4c
). Coxopodites ventrally fused mesally with posterior margin somewhat W-shaped in ventral view (
Fig. 4a
); in lateral view subrectangular, each with dorsal process triangular, smooth and hairless, and ventral process rounded, setose, shorter than dorsal process (
Fig. 4c
). Harpagones inserted between dorsal and ventral processes of coxopodite, tongue-shaped, setose and longer than dorsal processes of coxopodites in lateral view (
Fig. 4c
).
Diagnosis:
This species is similar to
Tinodes eris
Malicky & Sangpradub 2001
(in
Malicky
et al
. 2001
) from
Thailand
. However, the new species can be easily distinguished from it by the inner phallic sheath process with its base fused with the complex of tergum IX and X and the other portion free from the complex, vertical, and bifurcate.
