Xizicus (Paraxizicus) tonicosus ( Shi & Chen, 2002) Wang, Jing, Liu, Li , comb. nov.

Xiphidiopsis tonicosa Shi & Chen, 2002 View in CoL : Entomologia sinica, 9(3), 69.

No material examined.

Discussion. This species was originally described as a Xiphidiopsis . The original description did not mention any membranous protrusions under male 10 th abdominal tergite but portrayed in the illustrations, 4 longitudinal stripes of dorsal surface of the head and specialized male subgenital plate meet the subgeneric characteristics of Xizicus (paraxizicus) . However the process of male 10 th abdominal was not bifurcate disagreed with other species of subgenus Paraxizicus . In light of the above characteristics, and the comparison with Xiphidiopsis it is more appropriate to be included in Xizicus .

Distribution. China (Guizhou).
