Remarks.
This species was first reported from
China
(
Taiwan)
by
Rudzinski (2005)
, and this is the first record of this species from the mainland. This species also resembles
Z.
(
Zygoneura
)
flavicoxa
Johannsen
in the morphology of gonostylus. However, it can easily be distinguished from the latter by the flagellomere with mostly short setae on the body and with a row of distinctly elongated setae near the neck (
Fig. 12D
), and hence, classify this species in the subgenus
Pharetratula
.
