Genus Aphlugiolopsis Wang, Liu, Li gen. nov.

Size smaller. Fastigial cone prominent, with obtuse apex and furrow above. Face slightly oblique, eyes subcircular, strongly prominent. Apical and subapical segments of maxillary palp almost of equal lengths. Pronotum elongate: lateral lobe low, with weak notch at hind margin. Acoustical opening fully exposed. Tegmina shortened, but extending to abdominal end, wings shorter than tegmina. All femora without spines, both tympana of fore tibiae open, hind tibiae with 3 paired of apical spurs. male 10th abdominal tergite with rounded hind margin; subgenital plate of male with styli placed at subapical sites; genitalia of male entirely sclerotized.

Diagnosis. This new genus is close to Neocononicephora Gorochov, 1998 but differs in the male subgenital plate with styli and genitalia entirely sclerotized. Differs from Phlugiolopsis Zeuner, 1940 by the fully developed tegmina and wings.

Type species. Aphlugiolopsis punctipennis Wang, Liu, Li sp. nov.
