Outer metasternal disc with an oblique setose area, extending from posterior angle to the middle of disc (setae partially fell off in Fig. 14, but their pores still visible); metepisternum densely pubescent.</p>
            <p>Abdominal sternite with dense pubescence and punctures, middle area of sternite less pubescent than both sides, transverse impressions distinct in both lateral areas; the eighth visible abdominal tergite with pars stidens.</p>
            <p>Legs slender; tibia with punctures and pubescence; femora with dense setae in dorsal surface, with sparse setae in ventral surface, middle area with a triangular denticle.</p>
            <p>Genitalia. Median lobe sclerotized, tubular, curved, median foramen occupying 1/4 length of aedeagus; medial portion slightly broader than basal and apical portion in ventral view (Fig. 17); middle of apex truncated in dorsal view (Fig. 20); tegmen Y-shaped and weak, basal piece of tegmen triangle and relatively small, lateral lobes slender and combined with second connecting membrane; internal sac membranous, with three sclerotized sclerites, dorsal, median, and ventral sclerites (Fig. 23A-C).</p>
            <p>Distribution.</p>
            <p>China (Yunnan), India (Manipur).</p>
            <p>Host plant.</p>
            <p> This species lived on  Smilax ferox Wall. ex Kunth (  Smilacaceae ) according to photos (Figs 25, 26) taken by the second author (BWX). </p>
            <p>Habitat.</p>
            <p> The habitats are shown in Fig. 24. It is similar to those of  M. yuae sp. nov. in  Mêdog , but with some patches of cultivated field. </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> The specimens from Yunnan, China differ slightly from the type specimen in having: 1) body color brown (brownish black in type); 2) sides behind eyes and outer area of metasternal disc with sparser setae (denser in type); 3) antennomeres 3 and 4 longer (shorter in types); 4) anterior yellow patches more distant from shoulder and each of four patches surrounded by a distinct blackish circle (anterior yellow patches closer to shoulder and patches surrounded by a weak blackish circle in type). These external variations indicate that the specimens from Yunnan might represent another new species, but we only checked two specimens from Yunnan and tentatively treated them as members of  M. dohertyi . These new records extend the distribution of  M. dohertyi northwards by ca 500 km. </p>
            <p> We also compared the differences in the internal sac between  M. dohertyi and  M. yuae , and they differ significantly in the shape of the dorsal sclerite (Figs 21-23). In lateral view, the dorsal sclerite of  M. dohertyi is obviously enlarged backwards but  M. yuae does not have such a sclerite; in dorsal view, the dorsal sclerite of  M. dohertyi is slender and narrowed in the middle, and the sides of the dorsal sclerite of  M. yuae are nearly parallel; in ventral view, the horn of the dorsal sclerite of  M. yuae is bent downwards, but in  M. dohertyi it is bent forwards. </p>

            <p>Distribution.</p>
            <p>China (Tibet, Yunnan).</p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> The specific name  Manipuria yuae is proposed in memory of Professor Peiyu Yu, who contributed greatly to the taxonomy on Chinese  Criocerinae . </p>
            <p>Host plant.</p>
            <p> This species lived on  Smilax sp. (  Smilacaceae ) according to observations of the second author (BWX). </p>
            <p>Habitat.</p>
            <p> The locality of the new species in  Mêdog county is situated at the northernmost part of tropics in Asia. The vegetation is tropical seasonal rainforest. The climate is characteristic of high temperature, plentiful precipitation, and high humidity. The biodiversity is rich in this region. The forests are composed of tall trees, woody vines and epiphytes. The host plant of new species is  Smilax sp. (  Smilacaceae ). It shares its habitat with plants such as  Hedychium sp. (  Zingiberaceae ),  Musa sp. (  Musaceae ),  Epipremnum sp. (  Araceae ),  Lysionotis spp. (  Gesneriaceae ),  Alsophila sp. (  Cyatheaceae ), and  Dryopteris sp. (  Dryopteridaceae ). </p>
            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p>The specimen from Yunnan differs slightly from those from Tibet in having a lighter color (yellow-red), a shorter head (HL/HW = 1.5), and weaker sclerites (yellow) of the male genitalia.</p>
            <p> When this new species is included, the concept of the genus  Manipuria is expanded slightly by the absence of a projection on front of the mandible. The genus  Manipuria differs from the genus  Lilioceris mainly in having elongate gena, a less constricted neck, and small eyes. </p>
            <p> Some characters of the new species suggest its intermediate position between  Lilioceris and  Manipuria as the head is only slightly enlarged and the ventral teeth on the head only weakly developed. It appears to occupy a position nearer to  Lilioceris than to  Crioceris as the pronotum is strongly narrowed in the middle. The relationship between  Manipuria and  Lilioceris needs further investigation. </p>
