Coriojassus zhejiangensis View in CoL sp. nov.

( Figs 1C, D View FIGURE 1. A – D, G – J , F, 7A–H)

Male 7.0 mm long, 3.4 mm wide across humeral angles. Head from antennal ledges to hind margin of pronotum brown ( Fig. 1C, D View FIGURE 1. A – D, G – J ), face below the antennal ledges pale yellowish with irregular dark brown markings posteriorly, postfrontal suture dark brown ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1. A – D, G – J F). Pronotum brown with irregular pale yellowish brown maculae, and small dark brown spots anteriorly and laterally ( Fig. 1C, D View FIGURE 1. A – D, G – J ). Scutellum brown with pale yellowish brown maculae at central region ( Fig. 1C View FIGURE 1. A – D, G – J ). Forewing with hyaline pale brown, clavus anteriorly and posteriorly, narrowly dark brown; veins pale brown ( Fig. 1C View FIGURE 1. A – D, G – J ).

Male pygofer with caudal margin slightly concave in lateral view, ventral process broadly rounded apically with angulate ventroapical projection (Fig. 7A). Subgenital plate evenly widened from base to apex, ventral margin slightly convex in lateral view, apex obliquely truncate (Fig. 7H). Style apophysis twice as long as apodeme, abruptly bent at right angle near midlength, section beyond bend with prominent preapical spine, apex footlike (Fig. D, F). Aedeagus with shaft bent dorsad near base, then slightly recurved ventrally, linear through most of length (Fig. C), paired apical processes with distance between apical points subequal to distance from lateral point to tooth adjacent to gonopore (Fig. 7B).

Material examined. China: Holotype ♂, Zhejiang, Tianmushan Mountain, administration station, 27.iii. 2003, 350m, Wu Dai [ NWAU].

Notes. This species is similar to the type species, C. brunneus Evans , but differs from the latter in having the aedeagal shaft straight and the style apophysis bent with the apex curved mesad. The species name is based on that of the Chinese province in which the holotype was collected.
