description: <i>Homoneura (Homoneura) lii</i> sp. nov. (Figs 7–12) Body length 5.1–5.8 mm (male), 5.3–6.1 mm (female); wing length 5.7–6.4 mm (male), 5.5–6.1 mm (female). Head yellow. Frons wider than long, parallel­sided, with 2 pale brown stripes; ocellar triangle brown; ocellar bristle developed, longer than anterior fronto­orbital bristle; face without spots; gena about 1/4 height of eye. Antenna yellow; 1 st flagellomere somewhat pale brown, about 1.5 times as long as wide; arista black except yellow­brown base, with longest hairs as long as 1/2 width of 1 st flagellomere. Proboscis yellow, with black and yellow hairs; palpus yellow, with black hairs. Thorax yellow. 0+3 dc (anteriormost dc clearly behind transverse scutal suture), acr in 6 regular rows and equal in length, prsc about as long as anteriormost dc. Legs yellow. Fore femur with 5 posterior ventral bristles, 6 posterior dorsal bristles, and ctenidium with 12 short bristles. Mid femur with 6 anterior bristles; mid tibia with 1 preapical anterior dorsal bristle and 3 apicoventral spurs. Hind trochanter and femur without secondary characters. Wing (Fig. 7) pale yellow, dark on apex of subcostal cell, subapically on R 2+3, and preapically on R 4+5 and M 1, and along crossvein dm­cu; spots on R 2+3 and R 4+5 confluent; preapical spot on M 1 pale and small; costa with 2nd, 3rd and 4th sections in proportion of 11.5:2:1.4; r­m at middle of discal cell; ultimate and penultimate sections of M 1 in proportion of 6.1:3.8; ultimate section of CuA 1 about 1/6 of penultimate. Halter yellow. Abdomen yellow, with central black stripes on tergites 3–8 and black edges on tergites 3–6 in male. Male sternite 5 with concave distal border. Genitalia (male) (Figs 8–12): Protandrium rather wide, semicircular, 7th spiracle without surrounding setulae; surstylus basally fused with epandrium, apically furcated, with two outer processes; hypandrium with apodemes small, gonopod divaricated; aedeagus long, without apical incision. Type material. Holotype male deposited in CAU, Guizhou: Fanjingshan Mountain (27°55'N, 108°41'E) (2100–2200 m), 2002. V. 31, Ding Yang. Paratypes 2 males 3 females, same as holotype; 2 males 2 females, Guizhou: Fanjingshan Mountain (27°55'N, 108°41'E) (1800–2200 m), 2002. VI. 1, Ding Yang. Remarks. The new species is similar to <i>Homoneura (Homoneura) bistriata</i> (Kertész, 1915) from Taiwan, but can be separated from the latter by the spots of the subcostal cell and r­m being separated, and the hypandrial apodemes are small. In <i>bistriata,</i> the spots of subcostal cell and r­m are confluent, and the hypandrial apodemes are distinct (Kertész 1915; Sasakawa &amp; Ikeuchi 1982). Etymology. The species is named after Professor Zizhong Li. Distribution. China (Guizhou).
