( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 , 2 View FIGURE 2 , 3 View FIGURE 3 )
Description. Head slightly narrower than pronotum, crown with anterior margin subparallel to posterior margin, coronal suture distinct ( Figs. 1a, c, e, g View FIGURE 1 ). Face with frontoclypeus and anteclypeus narrow ( Figs. 1d, h View FIGURE 1 ). Eyes grey, somewhat black ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 ). Face pale yellow ( Figs. 1d, h View FIGURE 1 ). Vertex and streak along coronal suture orange and formed two pairs of patches in different sizes with light color ( Figs. 1a, c, e, g View FIGURE 1 ). Patches on hind angles of pronotum and apex of scutellum, black; orange umbrella framework pattern across pronotum, scutum and scutellum yellow, somewhat orange, triangles yellow ( Figs. 1a, c, e, g View FIGURE 1 ). Fore wings pale, semitransparent ( Figs. 1a, b, e, f View FIGURE 1 ). Ground color of abdominal tergites yellow to orange, with transverse stripes on each tergite, black ( Figs. 1a, b, e, f View FIGURE 1 ).
Abdominal apodemes reaching middle of fifth sternite or nearly reaching sixth sternite ( Fig. 3b View FIGURE 3 ).
Anal tube appendage arcuate or with obvious right-angle bend medially, extending far beyond pygofer hind margin ( Figs. 2a, b View FIGURE 2 ; 3g, h View FIGURE 3 ). Pygofer side with three to five macrosetae at lower basal angle and row of nine to ten rigid setae at hind margin ( Figs. 2a, b View FIGURE 2 ). Subgenital plate with exceedingly long and well pigmented at distal region of apex; with three macrosetae at transitional part; without minute peg-like microsetae at the angle of caudal part; narrowed area short ( Figs. 2a, b View FIGURE 2 ; 3a View FIGURE 3 ). Paramere apical part elongated with two dentate processes medially distinct or not, well bent ( Figs. 3e, f View FIGURE 3 ). Aedeagal shaft broad, straight, as long as or shorter than preatrium ( Figs. 3i, j View FIGURE 3 ). Small bifurcated process at apex of aedeagus in caudal view ( Fig. 3k View FIGURE 3 ).
Measurement. Length of male 4.1-4.4mm (including wing).
Material examined. Holotype: ♂, CHINA, Guangxi Prov., Youjiang, Longhe , at lamp, 27 June 2018, coll. Shuanghu Lin ; Paratypes: 12♂♂, same data as holotype ; ♂, CHINA, Guangxi Prov., Youjiang, Longhe , at lamp, 28 June 2018, coll. Shuanghu Lin.
Deposition. Entomological Museum, Northwest A&F University, Yangling, China.
Remarks. This new species is extremely similar to R. curtihamata but can be distinguished by the shorter aedeagal shaft, the anal tube appendage extending far beyond pygofer hind margin, eyes grey, somewhat black, face with frontoclypeus and anteclypeus narrow, and centre of frontoclypeus without dark apically.
Etymology. This new species is named after its type locality “Longhe”.
