Punctures on vertex and frons fine; setae long, dense, suberect to erect, additionally tempora and vertex with long bristles directed posteriorly. Antenna moderately short, length 0.63 mm, club 0.39 mm; antennomeres 1 and 2 elongate, 3–7 compact, each short and distinctly transverse, 8–10 greatly enlarged, conical, 11 roundly conical, distinctly longer than 10, with sharp constriction at point of basal 2/5.</p>
            <p>Pronotum in dorsal view subtrapezoidal, broadest at base and strongly narrowing anteriorly, length 0.38 mm, width 0.43 mm; lateral antebasal pits small but distinct, asetose, transverse antebasal groove shallow. Punctures on pronotal disc fine; setae moderately fine and obscured by dense, long and thick bristles especially on sides.</p>

            <p>Legs long and slender; unmodified.</p>
            <p>Aedeagus (Fig. 1D–E) moderately stout, dorso-ventrally almost symmetric, length 0.22 mm, in ventral view median lobe with abruptly delimited and long, broad apical projection greatly curved dorsally; compressor plate broad and plate-like in dorso-ventral view, subquadrate with narrowed apical margin, obliquely connected to median lobe in lateral view; lateral projections broad and membranous, curved dorsally, with round apices; ventral wall of median lobe with large, transversely rhomboidal plate, its apical margin with two admesal acute projection; parameres broad and elongate, narrowing from bases toward apices, each with two long setae at apex, two similar long setae at apical 2/5 and several short and thin setae at middle.</p>
            <p>Female. Similar to male in habitus and external morphological features. Antennal clubs (0.34 mm) slightly shorter than male. Spermatheca (Fig. 1F) in lateral view transversely oval. Measurements (as for male): body length 1.40 mm, length/width of head 0.34/ 0.32 mm, pronotum 0.41/ 0.43 mm, elytra 0.81/ 0.67 mm, length of antenna 0.61 mm, longest diameter of spermatheca 0.09 mm.</p>
            <p> Comparative notes. This is a typical member of the former subgenus  Napochus Thomson , which has recently been treated as a junior synonym of the nominotypical subgenus (Jałoszyński 2021a).  Napochus represents a fairly diverse group within  Euconnus , and has been the subject of recent taxonomic efforts for the Australian (Jałoszyński 2015), European (Orousset 2021), and North American (Stephan et al. 2021) faunas. In China, only a few  Euconnus species have been properly assigned to subgenera (Li, L.-Z. et al. 2019; Yin &amp; Zhou 2024). Nevertheless, no species is known to possess an aedeagus that bears even a slight resemblance to that of  E. wumengshanus sp. nov. Prior to this study, only one  Euconnus species had been documented from Yunnan (Mount Tangli) (Li, Q.-Q. &amp; Yin 2021), which is characterized by a modified male head and a stout, transverse aedeagus. </p>
            <p>Distribution. Southwest China: Yunnan.</p>
            <p>Etymology. The species’ name is a toponym derived from its type locality, Wumenshan National Nature Reserve.</p>
            <p>Remarks. The association of the female specimen with the male holotype was based on the similarity in morphological features and proportions of body segments. However, the collection site of the female specimen is situated approximately 50 km southeast of Laziping, where the male was collected. Given this geographical separation, the possibility that the female represents a separate species cannot be excluded. Thus, this female has been omitted from the type series.</p>

            <p> Comparative notes. Nine species of  Himaloconnus Franz have been described from China (Taiwan), Japan, Thailand, Nepal, and northern India (Jałoszyński 2020). The aedeagi of most species, where known, exhibit a similar morphology. Only two species,  H. shutjensis (Franz) from Nepal and  H. klapperichianus (Franz) from Taiwan Island and Japan, have been adequately characterized.  Himaloconnus obesus sp. nov. is readily distinguishable from both species by its significantly larger body size, and a bicolored and nearly glabrous dorsal surface of the body. In contrast,  H. shutjensis and  H. klapperichianus are considerably smaller (≤ 1.0 mm), have uniformly colored bodies, and exhibit evenly distributed setae on the pronotum and elytra. The body size of  H. obesus sp. nov. reaches 1.38 mm, making it one of the largest known species within the genus. Among other species, only  H. alishanensis (Franz) (1.50 mm) from Taiwan Island and  H. ramamensis (1.40 mm) from Nepal have comparative body sizes (Franz 1979, 1985). The new species can be separated from  H. alishanensis by the black head and reddish-brown pronotum and elytra, in contrast to the black head and pronotum and reddish-brown elytra of the latter species. Additionally,  H. obesus sp. nov. lacks antebasal pits on the pronotal disc, whereas  H. alishanensis possesses six small antebasal pits. From  H. ramamensis the new species differs by the bicolored body (uniformly dark reddish-brown in  H. ramamensis ), and the lack of antebasal pits on the pronotal disc (with one pair of antebasal pits on the pronotal disc of  H. ramamensis ). The remaining species,  H. reductipenisides Newton (0.9–0.95 mm),  H. nagarkotensis (Franz) (1.05 mm),  H. topali (Franz) (0.80–0.90 mm),  H. pokharanus (Franz) (0.95 mm),  H. hindu (Franz) (0.8 mm), and  H. topali (Franz) (0.8 mm), are all much smaller (Franz 1979, 1981, 1989).  Himaloconnus reductipenisides is distributed in Thailand, while the others are found in the Himalayan region. </p>
            <p>Distribution. Southwest China: Yunnan.</p>
            <p>Etymology. The Latin participle obçsus (- a, - um) means ‘fat, stout’, referring to the stout body form of this species.</p>

            <p>Diagnosis. Male. Body (Fig. 3A) length approximately 1.8–1.9 mm. Head and pronotum finely and rather sparsely punctate.Head slightly longer than wide, suboval, tempora much longer than eyes; antenna with antennomere 5 much longer than 4 and 6, 7 and 8 transversely subconical, 9–11 greatly enlarged and forming distinct club, 11 subconical. Pronotum bell-shaped, with four large antebasal impressions; lateral margins distinctly convergent posteriorly from broadest point to base. Each elytron with round apex, well exposing pygidium. Metaventrite and legs lacking modifications. Protarsomere 1 broadened, tarsomeres successively narrowing from 1 to 5. Aedeagus (Fig. 3B, C) elongate, dorso-ventrally almost symmetric, laterally moderately curved at middle; endophallus armature composed of broad sclerite bifurcate in apical part, forming two lobes, left lobe shorter than right one, curved at apex, right one gradually narrowing toward apex; areas lateral to ostium with rows of long, curved setae.</p>
            <p>Female. Body length slightly shorter than male. Antenna as long as male. Protarsus slender. Spermatheca (Fig. 3D, E) spherical, with broad opening and long funnel-like structure located on same axis as insertion of accessory gland.</p>
            <p>Description. See Jałoszyński 2021b: 355. Measurements for Wumengshan population: male body length 1.90– 1.92 mm, length/width of head 0.38–0.40/ 0.35–0.38 mm, pronotum 0.57–0.58/ 0.50–0.51 mm, elytra 0.97–1.02/ 0.81 mm, length of antenna 0.93–0.99 mm; length of aedeagus 0.46 mm; female body length 1.85 mm, length/width of head 0.37–0.38/ 0.37–0.38 mm, pronotum 0.56–0.59/ 0.51–0.52 mm, elytra 0.95–1.01/ 0.81–1.83 mm, length of antenna 0.93–0.99 mm; longest diameter of spermatheca 0.12 mm.</p>
            <p>Distribution. Southwest China: Sichuan, Yunnan.</p>
            <p> Remarks. This species is easily distinguishable by the aedeagal structures, particularly by the shape of the endophallus armature. The spermatheca is illustrated for the first time.All individuals were simultaneously collected with  S. vestitus (Sharp) . </p>
            <p>In his redescription, Jałoszyński reported the aedeagus measurement as 0.45 mm, which is comparable to the measurement obtained in the present study (0.46 mm). However, the scale bar in the corresponding figures (Jałoszyński 2021b: figs 2–5) appears to suggest a larger size for the aedeagus, approaching 1.0 mm.</p>

Spermatheca (Fig. 4F) spherical, dome-shaped, with funnel-like structure located on same axis as insertion of accessory gland.</p>
            <p>Description. See Jałoszyński 2021b: 358. Measurements for Wumengshan population: male body length 2.66–2.72 mm, length/width of head 0.49–0.50/0.56– 0.50 mm, pronotum 0.73–0.78/ 0.65–0.69 mm, elytra 1.33– 1.40/ 1.08–1.13 mm, length of antenna 1.29–1.35 mm; female body length 2.22–2.38 mm, length/width of head 0.46–0.48/ 0.45–0.48 mm, pronotum 0.63–0.74/ 0.56–0.67 mm, elytra 1.22–1.27/ 1.04–1.07 mm, length of antenna 1.12–1.22 mm; longest diameter of spermatheca 0.15 mm.</p>
            <p>Distribution. Japan (Honshu, Kyushu, Ryukyu Is.); South Korea; China (Sichuan, Yunnan, Taiwan).</p>
            <p> Remarks. This species is readily distinguishable and exhibits a widespread distribution ranging from Japan through China (mainland and Taiwan). The proposed synonymy of  S. vestitus with  S. kunmingensis is based on a comparison of specimens from Yunnan with the original descriptions and aedeagal illustrations of both taxa. The large body size, male-specific tibial modifications, metaventrite characteristics, and the structural configuration of the aedeagal endophallus are distinctive and consistent across all known populations. The spermatheca of this species is illustrated for the first time. All individuals were collected together with  S. chinensis . </p>
