Puthz, 1991: 39 (subgenus Parastenus; Type locality: Nepal: Ilam District nördl. Mai Pokhari, Tal der Gitang Khola, 1900– 2100 m); Zheng, 1993: 225, 227 (subgenus Parastenus; key characters; China; Nepal); Herman, 2001a: 2306; Smetana, 2004: 544 (Palaearctic catalog); Puthz 2013a: 1399; Schülke & Smetana, 2015: 832 (Palaearctic catalog). Syn.: Stenus notaculipennis emeiensis Zheng, 1992: 167 (subgenus Parastenus; subspecies of notaculipennis; Type locality: China: Sichuan: E-Mei-Shan, 710–1450 m).
Material examined: China: Sichuan: Emei Shan, 3 males, 7 females, 29.VIII. 2 0 0 5, Cai-Yun Zhao leg. (IZ- CAS). Emei Shan, 2 males, 4 females, 700–800 m, 28.VIII. 2005, Xiao-Yan Zhao leg. (IZ-CAS). Emei Shan, 1 male, 29.VIII.2005, Yong-Jie Chen leg. (IZ-CAS). Emei Shan, 1 male, 28.VIII.2005, Ye-Jun Zhang leg. (IZ-CAS).
Remarks: This species can be distinguished from S. zhangyejunianus Lv et Zhou, sp. nov by the following characteristics: body size smaller, larger elytra spot, punctures on pronotum barely confluent and well reticulated. This species includes two subspecies: Stenus notaculipennis emeiensis Zheng, 1992 and Stenus notaculipennis notaculipennis Puthz, 1991. The former can be distinguished from the latter by the following characteristics: Median lobe of aedeagus (Figs. 11A & 12A) with a larger and more truncate apical sclerotized area. Most specimens found from Sichuan (Emei Shan) are obviously to the former. However, we also found one specimens from Sichuan (Emei Shan, 1 male, 28.VIII.2005, Ye-Jun Zhang leg.) with its aedeagus (Figs. 13 & 14) somehow near to the subspecies notaculipennis Puthz, 1991. This problem is still open for further study until we have more materials from the type localities of both.
Distribution. China (Sichuan, Yunnan, Hainan), India, Nepal.

description: Deltoplastis Meyrick, 1925
Deltoplastis Meyrick, 1925: 227. Type species: Onebala ocreata Meyrick, 1910, by original designation. TL: Mardras, India.
Generic characters. Adult (Fig. 1a): Head rounded. Labial palpus with second segment slightly thick, third segment slender, a little longer than second segment. Forewing with costal margin almost straight or slightly arched, apex produced triangularly; ground colour usually yellowish brown, with variously shaped large black markings; R3 and R4+5 stalked basally, R5 to apex, M2 and M3 close to each other or arising from same point, CuA l and CuA2 stalked at basal 5/6 length. Hindwing with R5 and M1 stalked basally, M2 absent, M3 and CuA1 stalked for a short distance (Fig. 1 c). Abdominal tergites with spinules.
Male genitalia (Fig. 1 b): Uncus broad at base, narrowed to apex. Gnathos sharply narrowed and hooked distally. Valva broad basally, cucullus subtriangular, upturned. Juxta nearly square, paired caudal lobes digitate or clavate or indistinct. Sacculus sometimes weak. Vinculum narrowly banded. Aedeagus with a cornutus, or cornuti of numerous spines.
Female genitalia: Apophyses posteriores usually longer than apophyses anteriores. Antrum inconspicuous or weakly sclerotized. Ductus bursae longer than corpus bursae, more or less curved, ductus seminalis helical. Corpus bursae rounded or oval, signum with teeth.
Diagnosis. Deltoplastis Meyrick is superficially similar to Torodora Meyrick, 1894. It can be distinguished from the latter by the absence of M 2 in the hindwing, which is present in Torodora.

(Figs. 2 a, 3g, 6b, 8b)
Deltoplastis prionaspis Gozmány, 1978: 227; Wu, 1997: 97. TL: Yunnan, China.
Material examined. China: Yunnan Province: 7♂, 3♀, Mt. Weibao, Weishan County, 2200 m, 20–21.VII.2001, coll. Houhun Li & Xinpu Wang; 1♀, Mt. Weibao, Weishan County, 2200 m, 22.VII.2013, Shurong Liu, Yuqi Wang & Kaijian Teng; 2♂, 4♀, Wenfengsi, Lijiang, 2650 m, 18.VII.2001, coll. Houhun Li & Xinpu Wang.
Female genitalia (Fig. 8 b): Abdominal sternite VIII with caudal margin concave in U-shape at middle. Apophyses posteriores about 1.5 times length of apophyses anteriores. Antrum funnel-shaped. Ductus bursae relatively thick, about 1/3 width of corpus bursae; ductus seminalis arising from middle of ductus bursae, slender. Corpus bursae nearly rounded, about same length as ductus bursae; signum rounded, with dense teeth.
Diagnosis. Adult (Figs. 2 a, 3g) with wingspan 14.0– 17.5 mm. This species can be easily distinguished from its congeners by the elongate triangular caudal lobes of the juxta dentate on the outer margin in the male genitalia (Fig. 6 b). It is more similar to D. apostatis (Meyrick, 1932) superficially and in the female genitalia, but can be distinguished by the funnel-shaped antrum and the rounded signum in the female genitalia (Fig. 8 b). In D. apostatis, the antrum is cup-shaped and the signum is diamond-shaped (Fig. 7 a).
Distribution. China (Yunnan).
Note. The female is described for the first time.

description: Genus Pseudolycoriella Menzel & Mohrig, 1998
Type species: Sciara bruckii Winnertz, 1867 [Winnertz (1867): 38–39].
Literature: Menzel & Mohrig (1998): 367–369; Menzel & Mohrig (2000): 464–480; Mohrig (2003): 34–37; Mohrig et al. (2004): 277–286. Mohrig et al. (2013): 225–231.
= Ostroverkhovana Komarova, 2002 syn. n.
Type species: Ostroverkhovana borealis Komarova, 2002 [Komarova (2002): 27–29; figs. 1–6].
Comments. Heller (2012) identified the type species of the genus Ostroverkhovana Komarova, 2002 as a species of Pseudolycoriella, similar or identical to Pseudolycoriella nodulosa (Mohrig & Krivosheina, 1985). We did not study the type but we agree with Heller (2012) that the species Ostroverkhovana borealis Komarova belongs to the genus Pseudolycoriella. However, we do not agree with Heller (2012) that the presence of a lobe at the ventral base of the hypopygium is sufficient for the foundation of a new subgenus. Intergonocoxal structures appear in species of Pseudolycoriella as lobes with or without bristles.
Diagnostic characters. The genus is characterized as follows: bristles on flagellomeres have mostly large basal pits but sometimes (only in a few species) a net-like surface structure; mouth parts are usually short, sometimes somewhat elongated (1/3 of the height of the head); palpi with three segments, basal segment slender, with more than one bristle, without a deepened area of sensillae; scutum and scutellum are mostly densely haired; wings are not reduced, except for Psl. semialata (Edwards, 1913) and with a typical Sciaridae venation; posterior veins without macrotrichia in almost all species; c longer than w; the tibial organ of the fore tibia is variable in shape, often with a semicircular border; claws are usually toothed; gonostylus is variable in shape, always without an apical tooth; in most species with two more subapically inserted spines of different lengths (in some species with one spine only, in others with three or more spines at the apex of the gonostylus) and with one (occasionally with 2–3 or none) subapical whiplash hairs, directed towards the base of the hypopygium; whiplash hair (hairs) are as long as or longer than spines and inserted near the apex of the gonostylus (not in or below the middle like in Lycoriella and Mohrigia); the ventral base of the hypopygium (intergonocoxal space) is mostly without a lobe or a distinct bristle patch; tegmen is variable in shape with or without a finger or horseshoe-like inner structure; the aedeagus usually has a large furca.

Comments. The species is characterized by having a basal lobe on the ventral side of the hypopygium, densely covered with macrotrichia. The gonostylus is strongly curved with two long spines and a whiplash hair shorter than spines. It seems to be closely related to the Palaearctic species Pseudolycoriella nodulosa (Mohrig & Krivosheina, 1985), but it does not have a hyaline spine in the middle of the gonostylus, instead it has just a patch of short fine bristles.

description: Pseudolycoriella nocturna sp. n.
(Fig. 6 A – B)
Locus typicus: Canada, Alberta, Munn Creek, 53.30°N, 118.10°W.
Holotype: Male, 11.vi.–24.vii.1994, spruce forest, Malaise trap, leg. E. Fuller, (PWMP).
Description. Male. Head: Round; eye bridge 4–5 facets wide. Antenna brown; 2 nd flagellomere with a l/w index of 2.0, hairs pale, as long as the diameter, no deepened sensorial pits. Palpi 3-segmented, long, brown; first segment with 5–6 bristles and a flat patch of sensillae. Mouth parts rather short. Thorax: Dark brown, scutum long and densely haired. Scutellum with 4 stronger bristles. Postpronotum bare; mediotergite with a few bristles. Wing brownish; R 1 = 2/3 R; c = 1/2 w; y longer than x, x bare and y with 3–4 macrotrichia; M-fork shorter than M-stem, rather wide; CuA-stem longer than x; posterior veins distinct and without macrotrichia. Haltere brown and rather long. Legs brown; tibial organ indistinct with a few short bristles, nearly comb-like, not bordered. Claws toothless. Abdomen: Ventral base of hypopygium without lobe, inner margin of gonocoxites with rather strong but not dense hairs. Gonostylus in profile (ventro-lateral aspect) rather narrow, apex densely haired, inner side broad and somewhat spoon-like; subapically with a few (3–4) fine, hyaline spines within the hairs and a long whiplash hair, inserted subapically. Body length: 4.0 mm.
Comments. The species is characterized by having a uniformly dark brown body colour, macrotrichia on the apical part of y, a gonostylus that is broad on the inner side (spoon-like), a few bristles on the mediotergite (unusual for Pseudolycoriella), toothless claws and a weak, somewhat comb-like tibial organ on the apex of the fore tibia. It resembles Psl. planiforceps (Steffan), but differs by having a darker body colour, a long whiplash hair and a weakly structured tibial organ.
Distribution. Canada (Alberta).
