Diagnosis. This species is similar to R. umbellata Wang, 2009 in the male genitalia. The new species can be distinguished by the sacculus with the distal 1/5 produced to a spine and the elongate, triangular juxta. In R. umbellata , the sacculus is finger-like in distal 1/3, and the juxta is ovate. The new species is superficially similar to R. setosa Wang, 2004 , but can be distinguished by the yellow frons, which is shining white in the latter species.
Description. Adult ( Fig. 6 View FIGURES 5 – 10 ) with wing expanse 11.0 – 12.5 mm. Head with frons yellow, vertex brown. Labial palpus in male yellow, second segment with distal 3/4 black on ventral surface. Antenna blackish brown on dorsal surface, yellow on ventral surface. Thorax and tegula dark brown. Forewing with costal margin slightly convex, termen oblique; blackish brown; costal margin with a pale yellow spot at distal 1/4; discal and discocellular as well as plical spots black; cilia black. Hindwing and cilia brown. Foreleg with first tarsomere at middle as well as entire third and fourth tarsomeres blackish brown on outer surface, remaining part yellow; mid- and hindlegs with coxae and femora yellow, tibiae and tarsi yellow on inner surface, tibiae blackish brown on outer surface, with a yellow streak at middle and apex respectively, tarsi blackish brown on outer surface except yellow at apex of each tarsomere.
Male genitalia ( Fig. 12 View FIGURES 11 – 16 ). Uncus wide at base, slightly narrowed to basal 1/4, widened from 1/4 to middle half, narrowed from middle to rounded and setose apex, setose lateromedially. Gnathos narrowly banded, anteromedially curved backward in a large semicircle; lateral arms narrow. Valva with basal 1/4 narrow, distal 3/4 elongate ovate; with a thumb-like process near ventral margin at basal 1/3, bearing strong setae along anterior margin and at apex. Costa broadly banded, distally narrowed, not reaching end of valva; transtilla oblique at apex. Sacculus less than half length of valva, broad at base, gradually narrowed to about 4/5, distal 1/5 produced to a spine. Saccus broad, sub-triangular, shorter than uncus. Juxta triangular; lateral lobes arising from anterior corner, slender, distally produced to a slender bar, reaching tegumen. Aedeagus slender, gradually widened from base to 1/ 3, uniform from 1/3 to 4/5; distal 1/5 bilobed: ventral lobe longer, slightly narrowed distally, round at apex, with a narrow plate from its middle bearing a small curved spine; dorsal lobe short, distally widened, concave at apex medially, forming two sub-elliptical processes.
Female unknown.
Distribution. China (Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan).
Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin angustus and zonalis, referring to the narrowly banded gnathos.
