Neopanorpa lungtaushana Cheng, 1957b: 32 , figs 14–15 (type locality: Lung-Tau-Shan [now Longdoufeng], 600 m a.s.l., near Yiu Vill. above Tso-Kok-Wan [now Caojiaowan], Kwang-tung [now Guangdong], China).
Neopanorpa brevivalvae Chou & Wang in Chou et al., 1988: 38 , fig. 9 (type locality: Rucheng, Hunan, China), syn. nov.
Diagnosis
This species can be recognized by the combination of the following features: 1) forewing with an additional short band between apical and pterostigmal bands ( Fig. 6View Fig A–B); in males, 2) notal organ strongly arched dorsad at middle ( Fig. 6DView Fig); 3) postnotal organ strongly raised and finger-like ( Fig. 6DView Fig); 4) hypovalves distinctly reduced, shorter than one-fourth of hypandrium ( Fig. 6View Fig E–F); 5) ventral aedeagal valves whitish with a pair of lateral hooks ( Fig. 6F, HView Fig); and in females, 6) medigynium with broadly spatulate posterior arms, and a concealed axis ( Fig. 6LView Fig).

Description
MEASUREMENTS. Male: FL = 13.5–14.8 mm, FW = 3.0– 3.4 mm; HL = 12.0– 13.2 mm, HW = 2.8–3.2 mm.; Female: FL = 13.8–15.2 mm, FW = 3.0– 3.4 mm; HL = 12.5–13.6 mm, HW = 2.9–3.2 mm.
Distribution
China: southern Hunan and northern Guangdong.
Comments
The specimens collected from the type locality (Longdoufeng) were at first determined as N. brevivalvae based exclusively on the male genitalia, especially the greatly reduced hypovalves ( Fig. 6FView Fig). The females, however, basically conform to the holotype of N. lungtaushana in morphology, especially in the broadly spatulate posterior arms in the medigynium ( Fig. 6LView Fig).
Neopanorpa brevivalvae was described based on a male holotype, a female allotype, as well as one male paratype and one female paratype. According to the original descriptions and illustrations ( Chou et al. 1988), the female medigynium bears an elongate axis extending beyond the main plate basally. However, the axes are greatly reduced in all the female specimens in this study. We reexamined the two female types of N. brevivalvae , and consider that they were mismatched with the males by Chou et al. (1988). Therefore, N. brevivalvae is here treated as a junior synonym of N. lungtaushana .
