Ho
gen. nov. spec. nov.
, but this species is separated by occiput lacking high crest and only postero-dorsal carina of metafemora with indistinct lamellae in female; fourth and fifth abdominal terga lacking hump and postero-dorsal carina of meso- and metafemora only with one to two small teeth in male.
Notes.
The male was firstly described and illustrated by Zompro (2004: 223). This species was considered to be misidentified in
China
(Hennemann
et al.
2008: 43). The adult specimen (
Fig. 19
) examined in this study was collected from Yunnan Province that proves the occurrence of this species in
China
. Measurements are given based on the Chinese material in
Table 3
