Description

Sathytes magnus Yin & Li, 2012

(Figs 84A, 98C, D)

Chinese common name: 巨型ḛà甲

Sathytes magnus Yin & Li, 2012a: 845. Type locality: Xizang A. R., Motuo County, Hanmi, alt. 2200 m.

Distribution. Mêdog County, Tibet, SW China (Figs 84A, 98C, D).

Remarks. Sathytes magnus was described based on one male and one female collected at Hanmi of Mêdog County (Yin & Li 2012). This species morphologically resembles a number of congeners whose males share a single basal protuberance of antennomere 11, and markedly oblique mesal margins of antennomeres 9. It differs in the large body size (3.36 mm), the relatively broad antennomeres 11 (Yin & Li 2012: fig. 4F), the unique forms of antennomeres 9 and their apophyses (Yin & Li 2012: fig. 7F), an apically expanded aedeagus (Yin & Li 2012: fig. 8F), as well as its distribution.
