Kamimuria shaanxinensis View in CoL sp. nov.

( Figs. 1 View FIGURE 1 , 3a View FIGURE 3 , 4a & b View FIGURE 4 )

Male. Forewing length ca. 17.6 mm. General color brownish. Head pale brown with a dark brown quadrate area in ocellar triangle, anteriorly with lighter fan-shaped diffuse area before anterior ocellus, slightly wider than pronotum; compound eyes dark; antennae dark brown, distal flagellum paler. Pronotum pale brown with dark brown midline and scattered brownish rugosites on disc ( Fig. 1a View FIGURE 1 ); wing membrane pale brown and subhyaline, veins darker. Legs: the basal half of femora yellowish brown, and the remainder darker ( Fig. 3a View FIGURE 3 ).

Terminalia . Tergum 9 with a large mesal field covering the entire segment longitudinally, covered with sensilla basiconica; the medial sensilla patch of tergum 8 smaller, only a few sensilla basiconica scattered on small medial patch of tergum 7 ( Fig. 1b View FIGURE 1 ). Hemitergal lobes of tergum 10 straight for most of length, finger-like, apex gently upcurved and covered with some sensilla basiconica on ventral surface ( Fig. 4a View FIGURE 4 ); the tip of hemitergal lobe, extending backward barely to posterior margin of tergum 9 ( Fig. 1b View FIGURE 1 ).

Aedeagus. ( Figs. 1c–1e View FIGURE 1 , 4b View FIGURE 4 ) mostly membranous, relatively straight but constricted at midlength. Subapical area with an egg-shaped dorsal membranous projection and a smaller ventral one. Apex triangular in lateral view, nipple-like in dorsally and ventrally, the armature slightly trilobed in ventrally. Armature extensive laterally on distal ½, consisting of an upper narrow sloping band of 2–3 rows of sharp, triangular spines and a wider trapezoidal band of numerous smaller spines, membranous between membranous.

Female. Unknown.

Type Material. Holotype: male, China: Shaanxi Province, Yang County, Yishui Town, Yaoping Village , 33.2630 N, 107.2142 E, 901.6 m, 2017. VIII.27, malaise traps, Haoyu Liu GoogleMaps . Paratype: 1 male, the same data as holotype GoogleMaps .
