The previously known distribution of L. dabashanensis included Shaanxi , Gansu , Hubei and Sichuan provinces ( Rougemont 2000 , 2017 ; Shavrin 2017 ). The above material from Anhui , Zhejiang and Jiangxi represent new provincial records (Fig. 26). Lesteva michaeli have been treated as a synonym of L. dabashanensis ( Shavrin 2017 ) . The coloration of L. dabashanensis varies from yellow-brown to black. Furthermore the coloration of antenna varies yellow brown to brown; the maculae of the elytra somewhat ill-defined; the shape of the aedeagus variable. For illustrations of L. dabashanensis see Figs 7A , 8 E–F, 10A–C, Shavrin (2017: figs 4–12) and Rougemont (2000 : figs 16a–b; 2017: figs 5, 5a).
