Zygoneura ( Pharetratula) transferata Rudzinski, 2005 View in CoL [ Rudzinski (2005): 375 –377; Zhang et al. (2010): 45 View Cited Treatment ; Shin et al. (2014): 562; Huang et al. (2020): 361].

Material examined. 1♂, China, Zhejiang Province, Anji, Mt. Longwang , 30°13’55.2’’ N, 119°14’38.4’’ E, 989 m a.s.l., malaise trap, 19.XI.2018, leg. Caixia Liu [ LW-QMT361 ] GoogleMaps .

Remarks. This species was first reported from China ( Taiwan) by Rudzinski (2005), and this is the first record of this species from the mainland. This species also resembles Z. ( Zygoneura) flavicoxa Johannsen in the morphology of gonostylus. However, it can easily be distinguished from the latter by the flagellomere with mostly short setae on the body and with a row of distinctly elongated setae near the neck ( Fig. 12D View FIGURE 12 ), and hence, classify this species in the subgenus Pharetratula .

Distribution. China: Taiwan ( Rudzinski 2005; Zhang et al. 2010) Zhejiang (this study).
