Cephennodes serratus species group

A new species group established here to accommodate C. (Fusionodes) serratus Jałoszyński, 2007b and C. (Fusionodes) corpulentus sp. n. described below, both from China. They share similar structures of the aedeagus: the median lobe symmetrical, with lateral apical lobes which have microdenticulate distal surface, narrow median apical columella between the lateral lobes, and a dorsal subapical projection (appearing in lateral view as a distally curved dorsal subapical 'tail') beneath lateral apical lobes and above a pair of robust subtriangular projections adjacent to base of parameres.
