Sinopesa guangxi Raven & Schwendinger, 1995: 633-635, figs 3C, 4B, 4E, 8 A–E (♂); Song at al. 1999: 40, fig. 17K (♂).

Types.

Holotype ♂ - CHINA: GuangxiProvince: Liuzhou, Dragon Lake (24°16'N, 109°24'E); in MCZ; examined.

Diagnosis.

Differs from all other known Chinese congeners except Raveniola shangrila sp. n. by absence of PMS. From the latter species Raveniola guangxi may be distinguished by shape of the embolus and by fewer maxillary cuspules - 3-4 vs. 15-20 (cf. Figs 15, 30, 37 and 19, 33, 41, respectively).

Known only from the type locality (Fig. 1).
