28. Lemula (Pseudolemula) viridipennis Holzschuh, 1993 View in CoL
(Figs. XIII-28, XIV-28, XVI-22)
Lemula viridipennis Holzschuh, 1993: 7 View in CoL , fig. 4. Type locality: 120 km SW Lanzhou, Ponggartang, Gansu, China.
Di a gnosis. Female: BL= 7.7 mm, EW = 2.4 mm. Body blackish brown with metallic green elytra. Head and pronotum moderately furnished with long feeble whitish hairs; elytra evenly provided with subrecumbent bristle-like white hairs; metasternum and abdominal ventrites provided with long whitish hairs which are getting denser laterally; each femur rather densely furnished with long whitish hairs.
Head as wide as pronotal base; clypeus and frons moderately punctured; vertex densely covered with large punctures, of which each periphery is carinate; temples behind eyes paralleled in some distance, then obliquely narrowed to neck; antennae reaching slightly over middle of elytra; relative lengths of antennomeres from base to apex as follows: 21: 7: 15: 14: 22: 21: 25: 22: 21: 20: 22.
Pronotum widest at base, shorter than basal width, 0.95 times as long as basal width, constricted near apical fourth, then widened toward obtuse lateral tubercles and weakly constricted again to basal fourth; base 1.1 times wider than width across lateral tubercles, 1.3 times wider than apex; disk densely punctured in front of apical constriction, and moderately behind constriction, with medial longitudinal depression between apical and basal constrictions; apex narrowly marginate without apical transverse swelling.
Elytra longer than twice humeral width (EL/EW = 2.08), slightly narrowed to basal forth, then weakly widened toward apical fifth; lateral rim of each elytron obviously inflexed; disk coarsely, deeply and rather densely punctured.
Legs with hind tarsi long, 0.82 times as long as hind tibiae, relative lengths of tarsomere I: II: III: V = 30: 17: 12: 31.
Male: Unknown.
Type material examined. Lemula viridipennis Holzschuh, 1993 : holotype ♀, Ponggartang, 120 km SW Lan- zhou, Gansu prov., China, 30-VI–2-VII-1992, Jaroslav Turna leg. ( CCH)
Distribution. China (Gansu).

Remarks. This species is easily distinguishable from Lemula (Pseudolemula) tichyi sp. nov. by the body color and distinct rim of elytral lateral margin.
