- Homa sinensis Qin & Zhang, sp. n. (Figs 1–14) Type material. Holotype, male, 15 Dec. 1999, Bubeng, Mengla, Yunnan Province, coll. I. Dworakowska (NWAFU). Paratypes. 1 male, 17 Dec. 1999, Mt. Nangong, Mengla, Yunnan Province, coll. Daozheng Qin; 1 male, 5 Dec. 1999, Jinghong, Yunnan Province, coll. Daozheng Qin. Description. Body size. male 3.8–4.0 mm. Ground color red. Vertex with two irregular grayish black patches near apex. Eyes grayish, ocelli surrounded by whitish patches antero-laterad. Face red basally; apical portion of frontoclypeus, anetclypeus and genae reddishyellow. Pronotum with irregular arch of patches anteriorly and laterally, with or without whitish semicircular patch in middle. Scutellum with 3 triangular creamy patches anteriorly and large yellow patch caudad of scutoscutellar sulcus. Forewing with the red transverse band fairly broad, apical 1 / 3 yellowish and subtransparent. Dorsum of abdomen tan, venter orange yellow. Legs yellow. Abdodminal sternal apodemes reaching to end of segment 3 (Fig. 14). Male pygofer lobe terminally bearing 8- 11 rigid setae, dorsal lobe-like structure rounded, directed dorsocaudad (Figs 6, 8). Subgenital plates well sclerotized and pigmented apically, 5 terminally truncated macrosetae of basal group densely grouped and restricted to end of caudal protrusion in basal 1 / 3, plate strongly narrowing in apical 2 / 3, dorsal margin distinctly sinuate, near middle provided with 4-5 long and terminally truncated marginal macrosetae, 6 lateral macrosetae large and scattered terminally, not reaching apex of plate, basal 3 bluntly terminated and apical 3 somewhat pointed (Figs 6, 10), fine microsetae absent, ventral margin of plate sinuate and bent caudodorsad in apical third. Paramere bearing 4 apical teeth preceded by about 5 setae and few sensory pits (Figs 6, 13). Aedeagal shaft with two long asymmetrical processes at apex, curved and directed basolaterad in dorsal view; pair of short, angulate lateral projections near apical 2 / 5 of shaft, distad of gonopore; gonopore dorsal in basal third (Figs 11, 12). Anal tube process nearly reaching ventral margin of pygofer, strongly tapered and curved anteriad (Figs 6, 9). Remarks. This new species is similar to Homa katoi Dworakowska, 1984, but differs in having the aedeagal shaft in dorsal view not curved to left apically and the apical processes nearly equal in length; the subgenital plates with 5 terminally truncated macrosetae in basal group, fine microsetae absent, and the dorsal margin of the plate distinctly sinuate and with 4-5 long, truncate macrosetae near the middle. Etymology. The specific epithet indicates the locality of the type material (China).
