Diagnosis. <i>Holorusia henana</i> can be recognized by prescutum with three black stripes, the median one with a black mid-line, by the yellow pleura lacking of dorsal-longitudinal stripe. Wings are yellowish-brown with cells c, sc and stigma darker than the ground color. Abdomen is generally yellowish-brown, tergites one to seven of which have lateral stripes and very narrow posterior stripes. Tergite nine has a V-shaped notch medially. Redescription. Male body length 35.0 mm, wing 42.0 mm, antenna 4.7 mm. Head. Rostrum yellowish-brown, darker at ventral side. Nasus distinct, black apically, densely covered with brown setae. Antennae yellowish-brown, scape elongated, cylindrical, pedicel very short, flagellum 10-segmented, each flagellomere gradually smaller and shorter. Palpi black. Head yellowish-brown, occiput with indistinct mark (Fig. 3). Thorax. Pronotum yellowish-brown, darker medially. Prescutum yellowish-brown with three black stripes (grayishgreen in fresh); the median stripe with basal half gradually narrowed to base, parallel at apical half, with a dark median line; the lateral stripe oval, nearly half of length of median stripe (Fig. 4). Scutum yellowish-brown, each lobe with a black stripe, median area of scutum brown (Fig. 4). Scutellum yellowish-brown (Fig. 4). Postnotum yellow, heavily whitish pruinose (Fig. 4). Pleura yellow, without dorsal-longitudinal stripe (Fig. 5). Halteres with stem yellowish-brown, knob darker. Legs with coxae yellow, trochanters, femora and tibiae yellowish-brown, the femora with brown tips; tarsi dark brown. Wing yellowish-brown, cells c and sc and stigma darker than the ground color, veins brown. Rs very short, as long as R 1+2+3, cell m 1 short-petiolate, discal cell narrow, slightly shorter than cell m 1 (Fig. 6). Abdomen generally yellowish-brown, tergites one to seven with lateral stripes and very narrow posterior stripes, tergites eight and hypopygium wholly brown. Sternites with narrow stripes on posterior margins. Hypopygium compressed and broadened (Figs 7–8). Tergite nine densely covered with short setae, medially with a V-shaped notch (Fig. 9). Sternite eight with posterior margin straight, without mid-posterior incision (Fig. 10). Outer gonostylus flaky, widened basally and gradually narrowed to apex, rounded apically (Figs 8–10). Inner gonostylus curved and narrow, basally with a strongly sclerotized prominence bearing long hairs, apically enlarged with an incision on dorsal margin (Figs 11–13). Semen pump with compressor apodeme fan-shaped, shallowly emarginated at dorsal margin (Figs 14–15). Posterior immovable apodeme with two arms curved dorsally in lateral view, distinctly shorter than compressor apodeme, gradually narrowed to apex (Fig. 14). Anterior immovable apodeme shorter than compressor apodeme, gradually narrowed to apex in lateral view, acute apically (Fig. 14). Aedeagus elongated, tubular, two times longer than semen pump (Fig. 14).
