Stegana (Steganina) unguiculata sp. nov.

(Figs 2H, 11)

Diagnosis. This species resembles S. linnanensis Cheng, Gao & Chen, 2009 from southern China in the colour patterns of body (Fig. 2H) and male terminalia (Fig. 11), but can be distinguished from it by the aedeagus nearly bilobed, with 7 pair of slender processes and thick, long pubescence laterally (Fig. 11C); gonopods with 1 suberect lobe-like process bearing several pubescence (Fig. 11D). However, the minimum interspecific genetic distance is 3.3% to S. hirtifoliacea (Table 2).

Description. Male and Female: Pedicel brown medially, black laterally; first flagellomere nearly black. Palpus yellow basally, brown on distal 1/ 3 in male, brown on distal 2/ 3 in female. Mesonotum dark brown medially, brown laterally (Fig. 2H). Katepisternum dark brown on upper part, white-yellow on lower part (Fig. 2H). Scutellum black (Fig. 2H). Legs dark brown to black, yellow on basal part of fore femora and 2nd to 5th tarsomeres. Fore femur with 3 long setae on distal half of posteroventral surface. All abdominal tergites brown (Fig. 2H); all sternites yellowish brown. Male terminalia (Fig. 11 A–E): Epandrium with approximately 22 setae near posterior portion per side. Surstylus broad in lateral view. Cercus lacking pubescence. Tenth sternite with 1 pair of asymmetric projection sublaterally. Plate between hypandrium and aedeagus with 4 sensilla. Aedeagus composed of 1 bilobed medial process with pubescence. Female terminalia (Fig. 11 F–H): Epiproct and cercus with setae, lacking pubescence. Hypoproct pubescent medially, with dense setae along lateral and posterior margins. Eighth sternite glabrous, with a pair of small setae near posterior margin.
