Material examined. China, 5 males, Shaanxi, 1200 m, 6 km E Xunyangba, 23.–13. vi. 1998, I. H. Marshal ( LMBC, SYSM); 1 male, N Sichuan, Jiuzhaigou, 2000 m, 16. vi. 1992, M. Bok ( LMBC); 1 male, NW Sichuan, 33.10N 103.50E, Minshan, 2500–4500 m. 14.–16. vii. 1990, J. Kolibac ( LMBC).
Distribution. China (Shaanxi, Sichuan).
Remark: The specimen from Jiuzhaigou (Sichuan) has a median lobe of the aedeagus with a more raised apical structure.
Macrolycus muyuensis sp. nov. ( Figs 26 View FIGURES 23 – 30 , 39, 40, 51 View FIGURES 31 – 54 )
Type material. Holotype, male, China, Hubei province, Dashennongjia Nature Reserve, Muyu, E slope, 2000 m, 12.–15. vi. 1997, Bolm ( LMBC).
Diagnosis. This species is similar to M. gracilis in the shape of the aedeagus, but it differs in the short lamella of the antennomere 3 and the slim narrowed part in the apical portion of the median lobe in ventral view ( Figs 40, 51 View FIGURES 31 – 54 ). Additionally, M. muyuensis differs from M. mucronatus by the shape of the antennomere 3 and the relatively straight basal part of the median lobe in lateral view ( Figs 39, 51 View FIGURES 31 – 54 ).
Description (holotype). Body small, dark brown, pronotum and elytra dark red ( Fig. 26 View FIGURES 23 – 30 ). Head with flat antennal tubercles. Antennae overlapping midlength of elytra when inclined, antennomeres 3–11 lamellate ( Fig. 51 View FIGURES 31 – 54 ). Pronotum transverse, nearly trapezoid, anterior angles blunt, posterior angles acute ( Fig. 26 View FIGURES 23 – 30 ). Scutellum dark red, parallel-sided, with straight posterior margin. Elytra widened in distal quarter, covered with short, dense, dark red pubescence; elytral costa 2 much stouter than remaining three ones; costa 3 inconspicuous posteriorly. Aedeagus without paramerae, median lobe slender, slightly curved at base; subapical portion widened, gradually constricted distad; apical part tube-shaped, with prominent rounded lamella at apex ( Figs 39, 40 View FIGURES 31 – 54 ).
Measurements. Length 10.35 mm, width at humeri 2.20 mm, pronotum length/width 1.55/1.80 mm.
Distribution. China (Hubei), known only from the type locality.
Etymology. The specific name refers to the type locality (Muyu) in the province of Hubei, China.
