Name
Pselaphodes zhongdianus Yin & Li sp. n. – Wikispecies link – ZooBank link – Pensoft Profile
Type material
(1 ♂). Holotype: ♂, labeled ‘CHINA: N-Yunnan [C03-05] / Zhongdian Co., 46 km SSE / Zhongdian, 27°27.0'N, 99°54.7'E, / 3050-3100 m, creek valley, secondary / mixed forest, bamboo, mushrooms, / 17.VIII.2003, leg. M. Schülke’ (cSch).
Diagnosis
Reddish brown; length 3.23; postgenae round laterally; antennomeres IX–XI enlarged, IX modified in the male; pronotum with lateral margins slightly angularly expanded laterally; with metaventral processes apically narrowed; metacoxae simple; aedeagus with asymmetric median lobe.
Description
Male (Fig. 15D). Length 3.23. Head longer than wide, HL 00.73, HW 0.70; eyes each composed of about 45 facets. Antennal clubs as in Fig. 19A. Pronotum (Fig. 19B) about as long as wide, PL 0.72, PW 0.71, with lateral margins slightly angularly expanded laterally. Elytra wider than long, EL 0.89, EW 1.37. Metaventral (Fig. 19C) processes narrowed apically. Protrochanters with short ventral spine, profemora with long sharp spine at ventral margin (Fig. 19D), protibiae with tiny apical spur (Fig. 19E); mesotrochanters with two small spines at ventral margin, mesofemora simple (Fig. 19F); metatrochanters and metafemora (Fig. 19G) simple. Abdomen broad at base and narrowed apically, AL 0.89, AW 1.44. Sternite IX as in Fig. 19H. Aedeagus length 0.65, with asymmetric median lobe (Figs 19I–K).
Female. Unknown.
Comparative notes
Placed near Pselaphodes erlangshanus and Pselaphodes flexus as discussed above, readily separated from both species by the unique antennomeres IX being strongly roundly projecting at the anterolateral margin.
Distribution
Southwest China: Yunnan.
Biology
Individuals was sifted from bamboo leaf litter and mushrooms in a secondary mixed forest.
Etymology
The new species is named after the type locality, Zhongdian.
Unassociated female specimens Notes.
