( Figs 1 C, G, K View FIGURE 1 , 3 View FIGURE 3 A–G)
Description. Measurements. Male. Body length (including tegmina): 8.6–8.9 mm. Head width (including eyes): 1.94 mm. Crown length × width: 1.09 × 0.85 mm; eyes width: 0.58 mm; clypeus length: 1.40 mm. Pronotum length × width: 0.89 × 2.30 mm. Scutellum length: 1.18 mm.
External morphology. Male. General color dark brown to black ( Fig. 1 C, G View FIGURE 1 ). Head with numerous black markings. Crown brown, eyes and ocelli light brown ( Fig. 1 C, G View FIGURE 1 ). Face brown, with numerous black markings ( Fig. 1 K View FIGURE 1 ). Pronotum and scutellum with numerous light brown granules ( Fig. 1 C, G View FIGURE 1 ). Forewing brown with venation darker-brown, with numerous irregular light spots ( Fig. 1 C, G View FIGURE 1 ).
Moderately long, slender species ( Fig. 1 C View FIGURE 1 ). Head with anterior margin arched ( Fig. 1 C, G View FIGURE 1 ). Crown wide and broader than eye width, extending beyond eyes about 1/4 median length ( Fig. 1 C, G View FIGURE 1 ). Face with clypellus short, base weakly inflated ( Fig. 1 K View FIGURE 1 ).
Male genitalia. Pygofer in lateral view with round, elongate caudoventral lobe, caudodorsal margin with pair of long processes ( Fig. 3 A View FIGURE 3 ). Segment X process wide and flat. Dorsal connective broadly U-shaped in ventral view ( Fig. 3 B View FIGURE 3 ). Style wide, exceeding apex of aedeagal paraphysis, gradually expanded distally, middle region with numerous fine setae, with four digitate processes on apex ( Fig. 3 C View FIGURE 3 ). Aedeagal shaft nearly reaching middle of ventral paraphysis; gonopore apical; ventral paraphysis asymmetrical, slender, slightly curved, base broad, and strongly curved at apex in lateral view, subbasally with pair of processes on dorsal margin ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 D–E). Connective Yshaped, stem short and narrow ( Fig. 3 F View FIGURE 3 ). Subgenital plate relatively broad, with row of macrosetae from mid-length to subapex, distal margin with slender setae ( Fig. 3 G View FIGURE 3 ).
Female. U nknown.
Host. Unknown.
Material Examined. Holotype: male, China: Bao Shan County, Yunnan Province, 03. VIII. 2018, collect-ed by Wang Xianyi . Paratype: male, same data as holotype except 05. VIII. 2018, collected by Yang Lu. No. CTW19002.1–2 .
Distribution. China (Yunnan province).
Etymology. The new species name is the Latin word “ fimbriata ” referring to the style with finger-like processes.
Remarks. This new species is similar to T. philagroides ( Jacobi, 1914) (Fig. 170, Li & Fan, 2017), but can be distinguished by the aedeagal paraphysis with pair of subbasal processes.
