(Type material had been examined by Volker Puthz, see Puthz 1967) Male. Eighth sternite (Fig. 35) with shallow emargination at middle of posterior margin; 9 th sternite (Fig. 36) with relatively small apicolateral projections and near straight posterior margin. Aedeagus (Fig. 37) with median lobe broadest a little before basal half, tapering apicad into round projection at apex, expulsion clasp (Fig. 38) strongly sclerotized; parameres slender, distinctly longer than median lobe, swollen at apex, each with about 19–21 setae on apico-internal margins. Remarks. The type locality of this species was listed in the original description (Benick 1940) as “NW- China Tiemushan”, which is actually Tianmushan, Zhejiang Prov., East China. It can be easily distinguished from other Chinese species of the cirrus group by entirely black body and very narrow, linear margins of 4– 6 th abdominal segments. Distribution. China (Zhejiang Province).
