Mimopodabrus reductus sp. nov. is similar and related to M. satoi Wittmer, 1997 from Guangxi , from which it differs in shorter parameres, terminally curved laterophyses, less emarginate dorsal part of the aedeagus and the presence of a dark spot on the pronotum (cf. WITTMER 1997 ). Etymology. Named in reference to its short and reduced parameres. Distribution. China : Sichuan .
