Figs 12-21 Examined material. Holotype ♂ , China : Yunnan Province , Lushui City , Pianma Town , 26°0'34"N , 98°37'55"E , 26.v.2019 , collected by Jia-Jia Wang and Chao Zhang. Description. Body color (Figs 12-14 ). Specimen from alcohol. Yellowish to dark brown, striations on head, face, and pronotum same color as those of ground color. Head (Figs 12 , 13 ) yellowish, face with dark brown spot at upper central region, eyes brown with gray tinge, ocelli yellow, lower parts of ocelli slightly brown, anteclypeus with brown macula. Pronotum (Fig. 12 ) yellowish on anterior areas, especially those near eyes, then gradually darkening to almost black at posterior part. Mesonotum (Fig. 12 ) evenly black, with small yellowish tip. Forewing (Fig. 12 ) dark brown to almost black on basal part, veins black. Legs yellow with brown markings. Body appearance (Fig. 12 ). Head across eyes (Fig. 13 ) slightly narrower than pronotum; crown short, almost parallel sided. Face (Fig. 13 ) including eyes 1.2 x wider than its length; distance between ocelli nearly 4 x that from ocellus to adjacent eye. Pronotum (Fig. 12 ) 2.2 x wider than long, with striations nearly transverse. Mesonotum (Fig. 12 ) 1.3 x longer than pronotum. Forewing (Fig. 14 ) with two subapical and three apical cells, venation prominent. Male genitalia (Figs 15-21 ). Pygofer (Fig. 15 ) slightly prolonged caudally. Subgenital plate (Fig. 15 ) slender, slightly longer than ventral margin of pygofer, apical 1/2 with scattered setae. Dorsal connective (Fig. 16 ) relatively simple, S-shaped with apex broad and tapering to acute ventrally directed tip. Style (Fig. 17 ) with apophysis relatively straight, slightly widening to truncate apex, with marginal setae. Connective as in Figs 18 , 19 . Aedeagus (Figs 20 , 21 ) with dorsal apodeme and preatrium short, shaft in lateral view broad basally, thereafter tapered to upturned apex, in ventral view expanded distally with conically rounded apex. Figures 12-21. Pediopsis pianmaensis sp. nov. 12 male habitus, dorsal view 13 face 14 forewing 15 male pygofer and subgenital plate, lateral view 16 dorsal connective, lateral view 17 style, lateral view 18 connective, dorsal view 19 connective, lateral view 20 aedeagus, later view 21 aedeagus, ventral view. Scale bars: 1 mm ( 12, 14 ); 0.5 mm ( 13 ). Measurement. Body length (including tegmen): 5.1 mm. Distribution. China (Yunnan Province). Etymology. The specific epithet refers to the type locality of the new species, Pianma Town (Yunnan Province), combined with the Latin suffix - ensis , meaning "pertaining to". Remarks. The new species can be distinguished from all other congeners by its darker body color, forewing with two ante-apical cells, simple aedeagus, and S-shaped dorsal connective.
