03946C2DD123FF874FA521B9ECD6FF6F.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The new species differs from the known species of the genus Paraxizicus by: 1. male cerci complex, consisting of dorsal lobe, middle lobe and ventral lobe; 2. male subgenital plate prolonged afterwards, base broad, apex excavatus; 3. female subgenital plate saddle-shaped, with base narrow, middle area broad, apex rounded. Discussion. The appearance of the specimens from Guangxi and Hainan is very alike, including morphology of male stridulatory file and the number of stridulatory teeth in microscope. But the middle area of black longitudinal stripes on disc of the specimens from Guangxi are distinct.	en	Shi, Fu-Ming, Bian, Xun, Chang, Yan-Lin (2011): Notes on the genus Paraxizicus Gorochov & Kang, 2007 (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Meconematinae) from China.
