Processina hunanensis Yu & Zhang View in CoL sp. nov.
( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 , 2 View FIGURE 2 )
Description. Body length (including tegmina), male: 5.0 mm.
Body pale yellow to brown. Crown ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, C) deep yellow, with large black spot medially; apex of lateral frontal suture black, two light symmetrical spots on anterior margin in dorsal view. Face ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , D) dark yellowish except with darker tinge in frontoclypeus and anteclypeus. Pronotum ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, C) brown with posteror margin black and anterolateral margins yellow. Exposed part of mesonotum ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, C) concolorous with pronotum but with basal dark brown angles and two medial pale yellow lines, scutellum ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, C) lighter than the former with apex yellowish white. Forewing ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, B) hazel, veins of clavus yellowish; base with faint reddish markings. Legs ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, B, C, D) yellow, tarsal apices black. Venter of thorax and abdomen ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , B, D) yellow, distal part of male subgenital plates ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , B) dark brown.
Body small and slender. Crown ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, C) broadly rounded in dorsal view; coronal suture obscure; ocelli anterior to line between anterior eye angles, the distance between ocelli approximately 1/3 interocular width. Face smooth ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , D); anteclypeus swollen, broad basally and narrow apically; transclypeal suture obvious, junction flat, slightly apically expanded beyond gena. Antennae ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , B, C, D) slightly shorter than median length of crown; antennal pits near upper corner of eyes in anterior view and not overlapping frontoclypeus. Pronotum ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, C) almost trapezoidal, posterior margin concave. Forewing ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , A, B) apices exceeding posterior margin of pygofer by about 1 mm.
Male pygofer ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 , A) slightly produced dorsally, lobe with posterior margin angularly convex, with few small setae and a macroseta on posteroventral margin. Pygofer process ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 , A, B) relatively short, strongly curved posterodorsally in lateral view, extending posteriorly to middle part of lobe, expanded preapically, unbranched. Anal tube ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 , A) extended to apex of pygofer. Subgenital plate ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 , C) ventral surface some long thin setae dispersed on inner side and few microsetae distributed in middle. Style ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 , D, E) somewhat broad, narrowed anteapically, with several long microsetae and a few short setae at apex. Connective ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 , D) with anterior arms divergent, shorter than stem. Aedeagus ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 , F, G, H) exceeding posterior margin of pygoer lobe; basal apodeme irregularly expanded dorsally in lateral view; shaft long, slender and parallel-sided, tubular, evenly curved dorsally, apex bent anterad and tapered to point, with retrorse thorn-shaped median ventral process at mid-length; gonopore on posterior margin at base of distal extension; ventral margin of aedeagus with clavate anterior process.
Material examined. Holotype: ♂ ( NWAFU), Hunan Province, Shaoyang, Huangsang National Nature Reserve , 26°21'32'' N 110°8'6'' E, 1040 m, 28.V.2021, Coll. Ai Deqiang. Etymology. The specific epithet refers to the type specimen locality. Remarks. This new species is similar externally to P. dashahensis but differs in having the male pygofer process unbranched; and the aedeagus with a single preapical spine and an unpaired distal process.
