Concavocorona Wang & Zhang

Concavocorona Wang & Zhang 2014: 587 –588. Type species: Concavocorona supercilia Wang & Zhang , by original designation.

Remarks. This genus has been adequately described by Wang & Zhang (2014) for the species collected from China and Thailand. The genus can readily be recognised by the concave disc of the crown, transverse carina indistinct in fore part of crown, lateral carinae higher than median carina, male pygofer with long, slender ventral process exceeding posterodorsal margin; aedeagus with bilobed, lamellate dorsal apodeme arising from atrium and extended dorsolaterad, with lamellate ventral apophysis, shaft short, recurved dorsally, gonopore apical. Wang & Zhang (2014) separated this genus from Evacanthus by the structure of the crown. The face is also distinctive in that the gena beneath the eye is strongly incurved ( Fig. 4 P ). One new species of this genus from Myanmar is described below.
