Bolitogyrus cyanipennis ( Zheng, 1988)

( Figs. 8, 8-1 )

Cyrtothorax cyanipennis Zheng, 1988: 306 (Type locality: China, Sichuan, Wolong National Nature Reserve). Bolitogyrus cyanipennis ( Zheng 1988) , Smetana, 2000: 329 (key to species of Mainland China); Hu et al., 2011: 62 (key to species of Mainland China).

Material examined. CHINA: Sichuan Province: 1 ♂, Wenchuan County, Wolong National Nature Reserve, 6–7. VIII. 2004, coll. Xiujuan Yang and Huiran Hua.

Comments. The specimen was collected from the type locality Wolong National Nature Reserve, Sichuan Province, China. It matched very well with the original description except that the paramere of aedeagus had only one long subapical seta on each side; in the original description the paramere had two long subapical setae on each side. This difference could be attributed to the intraspecific variation.

Distribution. Bolitogyrus cyanipennis (Zheng) is known only from the type locality in the north of Sichuan Province: Wolong National Nature Reserve. The examined specimen was collected in August.
