Tautoneura aureomarginalis Tan & Song View in CoL , sp. nov.

Description: Body light yellow ( Figs 1, 2 View FIGURES 1–8 ). Vertex, pronotum and scutellum with milky yellow markings or spots ( Figs 1, 3 View FIGURES 1–8 ). Head yellowish, distinctly narrower than pronotum ( Figs 3, 4 View FIGURES 1–8 ). Eyes black ( Figs 1, 2 View FIGURES 1–8 ). Face milky white ( Figs 2, 4 View FIGURES 1–8 ). Pronotum light yellow ( Fig. 3 View FIGURES 1–8 ). Scutellum apex with black spot, basal triangles brownish yellow ( Figs 1, 3 View FIGURES 1–8 ). Forewing with basal and commissural margin in basal half orange, few orange patches present on corium ( Figs 1, 2 View FIGURES 1–8 ).

Abdominal apodemes short, not extended to posterior margin of 3 rd sternite ( Fig. 9 View FIGURES 9–16 ).

Male genitalia. Pygofer lobe with few long setae and some microsetae at baso-lateral angle, numerous fine setae scattered on lateral surface ( Fig. 10 View FIGURES 9–16 ). Pygofer dorsal appendage broadened at base, tapering towards apex ( Fig. 11 View FIGURES 9–16 ). Anal tube appendage absent. Subgenital plate with 4 macrosetae near mid-length on lateral surface and some microsetae at sub-basal part, marginal subbasal microsetae forming continuous row near apex ( Fig. 12 View FIGURES 9–16 ). Style slender, expanded slightly at subapex, preapical lobe prominent, apex tapered, without anteromedial angle ( Fig. 13 View FIGURES 9–16 ). Aedeagal shaft depressed, curved dorsad and long, broad in posterior view with two pairs of processes apically and subapically, subapical pair extended dorsolaterad and crossing apical pair; gonopore on ventral surface preapically ( Figs 14, 15 View FIGURES 9–16 ). Aedeagus dorsal apodeme obvious, about half length of aedeagal shaft; preatrium developed but short ( Figs 14, 15 View FIGURES 9–16 ). Connective stem absent, median lobe very short ( Fig. 16 View FIGURES 9–16 ).

Measurement. Male length 2.9–3.0 mm (including wing).

Specimens Examined. Holotype ♂: China, Guizhou Prov., Huajiang Town , 30 May 2021, coll. Jia Jiang. Paratypes: one ♂, same data as holotype .

Remarks. This species is similar to T. formosa Dworakowska (1970) , but can be distinguished by the depressed aedeagus (broader in posterior view than in lateral view) with very short preatrium ( Figs 14, 15 View FIGURES 9–16 ) and forewing with commissural margin orange ( Figs1, 2 View FIGURES 1–8 ).

Etymology. The specific name combines the Latin words “ aureo ” and “ marginalis ”, which refers to the orangebordered forewing.
