Sternites 3–5 bi-setose; sixth visible sternite 4 - setose in male, 8 - setose in female.</p><p>Legs long and slender; metacoxae bi-setose (inner seta absent); metafemora bi-setose; tarsi bisulcate; protarsomeres I – III with DAS and LAS, protarsi sulci shallow, metatarsomere I twice as long as metatarsomere II, metatarsomere IV bilobed, inner lobe equal to outer one, with LAS, metatarsomere V latero-ventrally asetose; claws simple (Fig. 4 A – C).</p><p>Male genitalia: Median lobe of aedeagus long and slender, moderately arcuate from basal lobe towards apex in lateral view; apical lamella sharply tapered towards the apex, 1.5 × longer than wide, narrowly rounded at the apex; apical orifice ending at two-thirds of median lobe and not reaching basal lobe. Left paramere broadly ovate and rounded at apex; right paramere small and narrow, with rounded apex. Endophallus not covered by tiny tooth-shaped sclerite scales; in lateral view, the endophallus with a broad, weakly convex distinctive fold in the middle section (Fig. 2 A, B).</p><p>Female genitalia and reproductive tract as in Fig. 3 A, B; apical gonocoxite&gt; 1.5 × shorter than basal gonocoxite, slightly curved with a relatively sharp apex, apical gonocoxite with four dorsolateral and single dorsomedial ensiform setae; basal gonocoxite with apical fringe of 8–11 setae. Bursa copulatrix small, spermatheca long, strongly arcuate, C-shaped, evenly curved throughout, with short duct, and spermathecal gland with moderately large, spherical shape, and long duct.</p><p>Differential diagnosis.</p><p>This new species is similar to Onycholabis nakanei Kasahara, 1986 in having the pronotum without posterior marginal setae, and the sixth visible sternites of males 4 - setose, females 8 - setose, but differs by tempora shorter, eyes&gt; 3 × as long as tempora (eyes 1.77–2.08 × as long as tempora in O. nakanei); pronotum slightly narrower than head, PW / HW = 0.94–0.97 (PW / HW = 1.02–1.04 in O. nakanei); elytral interval III with two pores (three pores in O. nakanei); striae distinctly punctate (indistinctly punctate in O. nakanei). Also, the new species is closely related to Onycholabis sinensis Bates, 1873 in having large eyes, and the sixth visible sternite 4 - setose in males; however, it differs in that the pronotum is narrower than head, PW / HW = 0.94–0.97, and without posterior marginal setae (pronotum wider than head PW / HW = 1.05–1.15 and with posterior marginal setae); elytral interval slightly convex (moderately convex in O. sinensis); median lobe of aedeagus moderately arcuate from basal lobe towards apex in lateral view (median lobe of aedeagus moderately arcuate at basal one-third, then almost straight toward apex in lateral view in O. sinensis).</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>China (Taiwan: Kaohsiung City, Ilan County, Nantou County, Taoyuan County; Taitung County; Pingtung County) (Fig. 8 B).</p><p>Habitat.</p><p>One collector of this species, Mr Chang-Chin Chen, told us that he collected some specimens along the road and the others from the ground where he had set a light trap.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>The new species name tengjhihensis refers to its type locality, Tengjhih, a famous forest recreation area in southern Taiwan.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/974A25E619E15996B637BEB7F6BC34DC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
