Diagnosis

The salient features of this new species following: 1) aedeagus with phallobase bilaterally symmetrical, dorsal periandrial lobe shovel-shaped with apex broadly concave ( Fig. 14 View Figs 10–16 ); 2) each paired inner penis rod with apex rod like and with three dorsal spines located at subapical ( Figs 14–16 View Figs 10–16 ); 3) anal segment in dorsal view ( Fig. 10 View Figs 10–16 ) approximatively oblong-shaped, epiproct distinctly exceeding apical margin of anal segment, anal style with slightly exceeding apical margin of epiproct; 4) genital style with lobes tortuous and irregular, apical margin almost rounded ( Figs 11–13 View Figs 10–16 ).

Etymology

The species name refers to the type locality, Jianfengling National Natural Reserve, Hainan Province, China.
