Qiu, Lu, Che, Yan-Li & Wang, Zong-Qing, 2017, Contribution to the cockroach genus Ctenoneura Hanitsch, 1925 (Blattodea: Corydioidea: Corydiidae) with descriptions of seven new species from China, Zootaxa 4237 (2), pp. 265-299 : 298

Ctenoneura sp.

( Fig. 14 )

Material examined. CHINA: Guangxi: 1 female ( MHBU), Yaojia Wan (ǾṀÄ), Tianlin County (ƂḢH), Baise City , 1200–1400m, 3.VI.2002, Xiu-Juan Yang leg.

Remarks. This is the first record of Ctenoneura in Guangxi. The distribution of Ctenoneura in China is known as Yunnan, and we also recorded this genus in Hainan Island . We expected that Ctenoneura should be found in Guangxi, as well; but we failed to find any species during our collection trip to Guangxi in 2015. Fortunately, we found this unique female individual in a mixture of cockroaches in the collection of MHBU, although in bad condition. This individual resembles the female of C. heixuanfeng , with dark coloration, but is slightly larger than the female of C. heixuanfeng , and the distribution indicates it may be a new species. We record it here for future work.
