E. griseipennis (Hendel, 1933) ( fig. 2 )

Adapsilia griseipennis Hendel, 1933: 9 ; 1934: 148; Malloch, 1934: 262; Chen, 1947: 68. — Soós, 1984: 36 (Adapsila). — Korneyev, 2004: 39 ( Eupyrgota ).

Taeniomastix sumatrana Enderlein, 1942: 113 , Steyskal, 1977: 41, syn. n.

Рис. 1. Eupyrgota formosana , ♀: 1–3 — голова (1 — слева, 2 — спереди, 3 — сверху); 4 — среднеспинка, сверху; 5 — крыло; 6 — среднее бедро, спереди; 7, 8 — брюшко (7 — сверху, 8 — сбоку); 9 — вершина основного членика яйцеклада.

Рис. 2. Eupyrgota griseipennis (1, 3, 5, 7–9 — топотипическая ♀ с г. Омей; 2, 4, 6, 10–12 — голотип ♀ Taeniomastix sumatrana ): 1 — общий вид, слева; 2–6 — голова (2 — спереди; 3, 4 — слева; 5, 6 — сверху); 7 — переднегрудь и передние тазики; 8 — среднеспинка, сверху; 9, 10 — среднее бедро, спереди; 11 — брюшко, сверху; 12 — основной членик яйцеклада, вид сбоку и снизу.

M a t e r i a l. Type. Holotype Adapsilia griseipennis ♀: China: “ Shin Kai Si / Mt Omei / Szechuen China / 4400 ft ”, “ July 1–30 / 1921 ”, “ DCGraham / Collector” ( USNM) . Holotype Taeniomastix sumatrana ♀: Indonesia: “ Sumatra / Nonfried S.”, “ Typus [pale red, Enderlein’s style]”, “ Taeniomastix / sumatrana / Type Enderl. ♀ / Dr. Enderlein det. 19341” ( ZMB) ; paratype Taeniomastix sumatrana , 1 ♀, idem, “ Paratypus [pale red, Enderlein’s style]”, “ Taeniomastix / sumatrana / Paratype Enderl. ♀ / Dr. Enderlein det. 19341” ( ZMB) . Nontype. China: “ Shin Kai Si / Mt Omei / Szechuen China”, 4000 ft ”, “[no date], 2 ♀, idem, 2000–6000 ft [no date], 1 ♀ (D. C. Graham) ; Kwanhsien , 07.1930, 1 ♀, idem, [no data,] 1 ♀, “Kwan”, 28.07.1930, 1 ♀, (A.L.Melander coll.) ( USNM) ; Laos: Vientian Prov., Ban Van Eue, 15– 31.05.1965, 1 ♀ (native collector) ; Sedone Province, Pakse , 31.05.1967, 1 ♀ (native collector) ( BBMH) .

Diagnosis. This species can be distinguished by the combination of face without facial carina; one pair of long ocellar setae; parafacial in profile as wide as flagellomere 1, mesonotum and abdomen with black (in type of A. facialis brown, rather faded) pattern; scutellum with two pairs of setae (basal short); wing grey microtrichose, without spots or bands; fore femur with 2 long subbasal ventral (in addition to common basal) and 2–7 long posterodorsal setae, mid femur with long and dense setae on anteroventral surface and large kidney-like femoral organ in distal one-third of femur; medioventral cape in femoral organ densely white microtrichose; abdominal sternites with transverse rows of long suberect setae at posterior margins; ventral hooks on oviscape slender; 1–2 pairs of erect thick black setae on ventral surface of oviscape anterior of hooks. The presence of narrow parafacial, long antenna and slender hooks of oviscape along with the lack of facial carina, support its placement to Taeniomastix .

Remarks. The holotype of A. griseipennis has been briefly redescribed (Korneyev, 2004); the size and position of femoral organ among the topotypic specimens from Mt. Omei slightly vary and thus the difference of this character between Taeniomastix sumatrana and A. griseipennis holotypes do not differ significantly. I therefore synonymize these nominal species.
