Losbanosia tamdaoensis
sp. nov.
(
Figs. 13–30
)
DIAGNOSIS: It differs from other
Losbanosia
species by this combination of characters: diamondshaped medioventral process of pygofer (almost subtriangular in
L. taivaniae
, diamondshaped but shorter and wider in
L. hibarensis
), posterolateral margin of pygofer with distinct lateral process, tapered posteriad (no process in
L. taivaniae
, process in
L. hibarensis
shorter and rounded at apex); anal tube about three times as long as wide at base, distinctly widened at base with lateral margins subparallel and without apical processes (anal tube not widened at base and with convex lateral margins and two apical processes in
L. taivaniae
; anal tube shorter, about 2.5 times as long as wide at base, with lateral margins concave in
L. hibarensis
); aedeagus with acute endosomal process (blunt in
L. taivaniae
); flagellar lobe with distinct apical concavity (lack of such concavity in
L. hibarensis
), phallotheca with additional process on caudad margin directed dorsolaterally right (no such process in
L. hibarensis
and
L. taivaniae
); VIIIth abdominal segment with distinct crest (lack of such crest in
L. taivaniae
and small crest in
L. hibarensis
); posterior margin of tegmen less undulate than in
L. hibarensis
, wing with veins CuA2 and CuP fused near margin in common point (transverse veinlet uniting these veins in
L. taivaniae
and
L. hibarensis
); postclypeus with distinct lateral carinae (lack of such carinae in L.
hibarensis
).

Figs. 14 & 15
), ocelli lacking; 2nd antennal segment (
Fig. 16
)
1.31 mm
long, cylindrical with apical concavity, covered with numerous sensillae.

1.53 mm
wide,
0.14 mm
long in mid line, with median carinae and distinct postocular carinae reaching posterolateral margin; posterior margin distinctly incised; disc of pronotum in anterior lower portion and posterior portion covered with whitish tubercles.
Mesonotum
1.63 mm
long in mid line,
1.7 mm
wide, with distinct median carina and lateral carinae, disc distinctly convex, posterior margin carinate.
Metanotum with anterior margin carinate,
0.49 mm
long in midline, with median carina, anterior margin distinctly incised, posterior margin roundly triangular.
Tegmina (
Fig. 18
) longer than widest part about 3.4:1, longer than wings about 1:0.34, with anterior margins almost straight, posterior margin subparallel, slightly concave, with rather indistinct undulation; vein RA with two terminals,
RP
with three terminals, M with 5 terminals, CuA + CuP with 4 terminals; second transverse veinlet
mcu
short.
