Type species: Tamdaotettix dilutus Gorochov, 1998, by original designation.	en	Qin, Yanyan, Wang, Hanqiang, Li, Kai (2019): A NEW SPECIES OF THE GENUS TAMDAOTETTIX (ORTHOPTERA: RHAPHIDOPHORIDAE) FROM YUNNAN WITH A KEY TO CHINESE SPECIES.

550087B5FFD5FF8DFE58ABC17B7BFD18.taxon	diagnosis	DIAGNOSIS. Body is smaller than in majority of the other genera of Diestramimini. Pronotum with dorsal edge arcuate and convex. Male posteromedian process of 7 th abdominal tergite rather short; posteromedian process of 6 th abdominal often angular or spine-like. Male paraproct simple. Male genitalia consists of six rather simple and completely membranous lobes (three dorsal and three ventral lobes; the ventrolateral lobes not very long and undivided). Female paraproct simple; upper valve of ovipositor with distinct dorsal notch near apex or without it. Tamdaotettix is most similar to the genus Mimadiestra Storozhenko et Dawwrueng, 2014 but differs from the latter in characters given in a key (Gorochov & Storozhenko, 2015). COMPOSITION. There are 17 species known from Laos, Vietnam and South China. Up to now five species has been recorded from Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi provinces of China. One new species is described in present paper. A key to six Chinese species is given below.	en	Qin, Yanyan, Wang, Hanqiang, Li, Kai (2019): A NEW SPECIES OF THE GENUS TAMDAOTETTIX (ORTHOPTERA: RHAPHIDOPHORIDAE) FROM YUNNAN WITH A KEY TO CHINESE SPECIES.

550087B5FFD7FF8BFF63AF4E7B95FB76.taxon	description	DESCRIPTION. MALE. Body small, shinning. Head with fastigium of vertex divided into two conical tubercles, completely fused. Legs slender; fore femur about 1.3 times as long as the pronotum, beneath unarmed, external genicular lobe with a long movable spine; fore tibiae beneath with 2 external and 2 internal movable spines, between the paired apical spurs with a short spur. Mid femur with a long movable spine on the external and internal genicular lobe; mid tibiae beneath with 2 external and 1 internal movable spines, between the paired apical spurs with a short spur. Hind femur beneath with 5 – 6 external small spines and without external spines; hind tibiae above with 50 – 54 outer spines and 45 – 49 inter spines, inner supra apical spur of hind tibiae slightly longer than the hind metatarsus. Hind metatarsus with 2 – 3 dorsal spines, including the apical spine. Posteromedian process of 6 th abdominal tergite with a truncated apex, reaching the apex of 7 th abdominal tergite, its apex obviously wider than apex of 6 th abdominal tergite (Figs 1, 2). Male genitalia: dorsolateral lobes short, dorsomedian lobe broad with lingua-like apical part (Fig. 3). FEMALE. Subgenital plate transverse, at middle part of hind margin with a small projection (Fig. 4). Ovipositor shorter than the half of hind femur; upper valve of ovipositor without dorsal notch near apex (Fig. 5). COLORATION. Body dark brown, shinning. Tergites with a greyish white band, the length of band is variable in different specimens. Frons light, with four dark longi- tudinal bands from vertex to clypeus. Legs dark brown, without obvious stripes. MEASUREMENTS (length in mm). Body: ♂ 8.0 – 10.0, ♀ 8.5 – 10.0; pronotum: ♂ 4.5 – 5.0, ♀ 4.5; fore femora: ♂ 6.0 – 6.5, ♀ 5.5 – 6.0; hind femora: ♂ 13.0 – 13.5, ♀ missing femora; hind tibiae: ♂ 13.5 – 14.5, ♀ missing tibiae; ovipositor ♀ 6.0 – 6.5.	en	Qin, Yanyan, Wang, Hanqiang, Li, Kai (2019): A NEW SPECIES OF THE GENUS TAMDAOTETTIX (ORTHOPTERA: RHAPHIDOPHORIDAE) FROM YUNNAN WITH A KEY TO CHINESE SPECIES.

550087B5FFD7FF8BFF63AF4E7B95FB76.taxon	diagnosis	DIAGNOSIS. The new species is similar to Tamdaotettix (Laotettix) curvatus Gorochov et Storozhenko, 2015, but differs from the latter in the male posteromedian process of 6 th abdominal tergite with a truncated apex, which reaches apex of process of 7 th abdominal tergite, but the process of 7 th tergite obviously wider than the former (Figs 1, 2) (in T. curvatus, the process of 6 th abdominal tergite with blunt apex, process of 7 th abdominal tergite with concave apex, apex of 6 th tergite process not reaching apex of 7 th tergite process).	en	Qin, Yanyan, Wang, Hanqiang, Li, Kai (2019): A NEW SPECIES OF THE GENUS TAMDAOTETTIX (ORTHOPTERA: RHAPHIDOPHORIDAE) FROM YUNNAN WITH A KEY TO CHINESE SPECIES.
