Trachusa (Paraanthidium) pingdaensis Niu View in CoL , sp. nov.
( Fig. 9 View FIGURE 9 : A–H, female)
Diagnosis: This new species is only known from the female; the mandible is five-toothed, the second recurrent vein ends distal to second submarginal crossvein, the subantennal suture is slightly outwardly arcuate, and the scutellum is broadly rounded but emarginate medially, the lateral margin of axilla convex, so it belongs to the subgenus Paraanthidium . The new species is very similar to T. (P.) longicornis , but it can be distinguished from T. (P.) longicornis by the following characters: Clypeus without a shining longitudinal slightly elevated middle line, with fine and dense punctures ( Fig. 9C View FIGURE 9 ); pronotal lobe small and without obvious sharp lamella directed upwards, distinct medial bump of similar height to carina ( Fig. 9D View FIGURE 9 ); apical half disc of T4 yellow, not black ( Fig. 9F View FIGURE 9 ).
Description: Female, BL=9.0–10.0 mm ( Fig. 9A View FIGURE 9 ); head broader than long, HW: HL=79: 72 ( Fig. 9B View FIGURE 9 ); gena narrower than eye, GW: EW=12: 18; MtW: MsW=95: 83 ( Fig. 9D View FIGURE 9 , Fig. 9E View FIGURE 9 ); ocelloccipital distance longer than ocellocular distance, OCD: OOD=15: 9. Clypeus broader than long, concave with apical margin slightly emargin- ate in middle, without a shining longitudinal slightly elevated middle line starting from basal to middle of clypeus, punctures fine and dense ( Fig. 9C View FIGURE 9 ); subantennal suture slightly arcuate outwardly ( Fig. 9C View FIGURE 9 ); mandible dull, minutely roughened and bearing very short hairs, broadened apically, with five black teeth; vertex polished and shining, with sparse and rounded punctures ( Fig. 9B View FIGURE 9 ); omaulus distinctly angled but lacking carina, anterior surface weakly concave if at all; pronotal lobe lamellate, but relatively small, without obvious sharp lamella directed upwards ( Fig. 9D View FIGURE 9 ); scutum polished and shining, with large and dense rounded punctures ( Fig. 9D View FIGURE 9 ); scutellum broadly rounded, emarginate medially, overhanging metanotum, with dense and rounded punctures ( Fig. 9D View FIGURE 9 ); lateral margin of axilla convex, with punctures similar to those of scutellum ( Fig. 9D View FIGURE 9 ); disc of T1–T3 with dense and rounded punctures ( Fig. 9E View FIGURE 9 ); vein cu-v of hind wing oblique, nearly half as long as second abscissa of M+Cu ( Fig. 9H View FIGURE 9 ), second recurrent vein of fore wing ends distal to second submarginal crossvein ( Fig. 9G View FIGURE 9 ); arolia present, claw with inner median tooth ( Fig. 9F View FIGURE 9 ). T1–T3 black, basal half of disc of T4 black, apical half of disc of T4 yellow, marginal zone of T4 yellowishbrown, T5–T6 yellow ( Fig. 9F View FIGURE 9 ); scopa bright yellow ( Fig. 9A View FIGURE 9 ); wings fuscated throughout ( Fig. 9G View FIGURE 9 , Fig. 9H View FIGURE 9 ).
