Hypopygium ( Figs 100–104, 108–109 ). Anal tergite with H-shaped bands which reach base of the anal point, with 3 lateral setae on each side, free-microtrichia areas present on the sides of anal tergite bands. The anal point in apical half truncated-conical (20 μm long and 16 μm wide in the base and 10 μm wide on the apex), medially with 5 dark strong spinulae (4–6 μm long) and covered with microtrichia, bearing 2 lateral setae on each side of the anal point. Gonocoxite 90 μm long, along the inner margin with 3 setae. The width of the transverse sternapodema 42 µm . Phallopodema 90 μm long. Superior volsella broad, elongated oval-shaped (40 μm long, 26–30 μm wide), bearing 3 median setae, two of which are located on a tubercle (ventral seta absent), and 6 fine dorsal setae, microtrichia absent ( Figs 13–14 ). Digitus 18–20 μm long, extends beyond the medial edge of the superior volsella. Stem of the median volsella straight 26 μm long, bearing slender lamelliform setae; total length of the median volsella 40 μm. Inferior volsella curved and rounded apically, 60 μm long, with 10 setae. Gonostylus straight, 80 μm long and expanded at about proximal 1/3 (20 μm wide). HR 1.13. Female, pupa and larva unknown. Remarks. The male of Neozavrelia samarga sp. nov. is more similar to the West Europea species— N. bernensis Reiss, 1968 and N. cuneipennis (Edwards, 1929) , but differs from the latter by the truncated-conical shape of the anal point with 5 dark strong spinulae and the ratio of the lengths of the segments of the maxillary palp (the 2nd segment is longer than the 3rd and 4th segments) (See Table 15 ). Distribution. Russian Far East—Samarga River ( Primorsky Territory).
