Descriptive notes of the male

Ninth abdominal tergite short; tenth abdominal tergite elongate backwards, feebly concave or with deeply notch on posterior margin in midline ( Fig. 7D–F View Fig ). Cercus obviously incurved, stout at base, narrowing towards tip; basal half expanded inwards on dorsal surface, its posterior area obtusely triangular; near base to middle area with rectangular expansion on ventral surface, apex truncate; apical half of cercus cylindrical, moderately incurved, tip acute ( Fig.7D–F View Fig ). Subgenital plate broader than long, basal margin with V-shaped notch, posterior margin with two triangular projections, apices subacute; styli inserted ventrally just before apical area ( Fig. 7C View Fig ).

MEASUREMENTS (mm). Body length: ♂: 7.8–10.6, ♀: 9.3–10.2; length of pronotum: ♂: 4.7–4.9, ♀: 4.4– 4.7; length of tegmen: ♂: 1.5–1.8, ♀: 1.6–1.9; length of hind femur: ♂: 9.5–10.4, ♀: 9.4–9.8; length of ovipositor: 5.3–5.6.

Distribution

China (Yunnan).

Remark

By checking the type specimens and material collected from the type locality and adjacent localities, we found some differences in the morphology of the male tenth abdominal tergite among different geographic populations and describe the male of Phlugiolopsis pentagonis Bian, Shi & Chang, 2013 for the first time.
