The new species is similar to R. fopingensis Wang et Zheng, 1995 and R. trilobata sp. nov. in male genitalia. It can be distinguished from them by the transtilla lobes touching medially and the aedeagus with an apical spine hooked toward base. In the latter two species, the transtilla is separated medially, and the aedeagus lacks an apical spine.</p> <p>Description. Adult (Fig. 13). Wingspan 10.0 − 12.5 mm.</p> <p>Head dark brown except frons whitish yellow on lower half. Labial palpus yellow, in male second palpomere black in distal half, in female second and third palpomeres black on ventral surface. Antenna black on dorsal surface, yellow on ventral surface.</p> <p>Thorax and tegula dark brown. Forewing dark brown to black; costal spot yellow, at distal 1/4−1/5; discal, discocellular and plical stigmata black, edged with a whitish yellow stripe or a few whitish yellow scales; fringe black. Hindwing and fringe dark greyish brown. Legs yellow; on dorsal surface, femur and tibia of foreleg black, tibia of midleg black, with yellow stripe at middle and apex, tarsi of fore- and midlegs black at middle of first tarsomere, at base of second tarsomere as well as on entire third and fourth tarsomeres; tibia of hindleg black on outer surface, tarsus black on outer surface of third tarsomere and at base of other tarsomeres.</p> <p>Male genitalia. (Fig. 25) Uncus broad sub-triangular, obtuse at apex, sclerotized and sinuate laterally. Gnathos with ventral plate broad, narrowly concave at middle on posterior margin, rounded on anterior margin; basal arm banded, gradually widened from base to ventral plate. Tegumen arched, with a large semicircular anterior emargination; lateral arm narrowed to apex, twice length of median width. Valva narrowed at base, gradually widened to before basal 2/5, then subparallelly sided to obtusely rounded apex; costa banded, widened distally, not reaching tip of costal margin; transtilla lobes widened and fused medially, produced to a short thumb-shaped process posteromedially; sacculus 1/3 length of valva, triangular, gradually narrowed from base to apex; apex acute, hooked obliquely dorsad. Saccus semielliptical, obtusely rounded on anterior margin. Juxta dune-like; lateral arm banded, basal 3/4 wide, distal 1/4 narrow. Aedeagus about 3/4 length of valva, widened from base to basal 1/4, then slightly tapered to basal 3/5; distal 2/5 uniform, with tiny teeth along one side near apex, with a small toothed plate near apex on another side; apex rounded, with a relatively large spine-shaped process bent toward base.</p> <p>Female genitalia (Fig. 31). Apophyses anteriores shorter than half length of apophyses posteriores. Eighth sternal plate spiculate, rounded on posterior margin. Lamella antevaginalis inverted U-shaped; lateral lobe narrowed to apex. Antrum sub-rectangular. Ductus bursae and corpus bursae membranous; signum absent.</p> <p>Distribution. China (Tibet).</p> <p>Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from the Latin medi- and processus, referring to the median process of the transtilla.</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03C787D9F16DFF91DB85FF17FE8F1F99	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Wuyi</a>, 1090 m, 12.VIII.2020, leg. MJ Qi &amp; XY Jin, slide No. XZX20098.</p> <p>Diagnosis. The new species is similar to R. fopingensis and R. mediprocessa sp. n. in male genitalia. It can be distinguished by the stout uncus without lateral lobes, the semicircular gnathos, and the aedeagus trilobed distally. In R. fopingensis, the slender uncus has a rounded setose lobe laterally, the gnathos is roughly X-shaped, and the aedeagus has two pointed lobes distally. For differences between R. trilobata sp. n. and R. mediprocessa sp. n. see diagnosis under the latter species.</p> <p>Description. Adult (Fig. 14). Wingspan 10.0 − 13.0 mm.</p> <p>Head with frons yellowish white, vertex brown. Labial palpus pale yellow, second palpomere black distally; third palpomere in female black except yellow at apex. Antenna black on dorsal surface; scape yellow and flagellum brown on ventral surface.</p> <p>Thorax and tegula dark brown. Forewing dark brown; costal spot yellow, sub-triangular, placed at distal 1/5; discal, discocellular and plical stigmata black, edged with a whitish yellow stripe or a few whitish yellow scales; fringe black. Hindwing dark grey; fringe greyish brown, with a whitish yellow basal line. Legs yellow; on dorsal surface, femur and tibia of foreleg dark brown, tibia of midleg black, with a yellow stripe at middle, tarsi of fore- and midlegs black at middle of first tarsomere and at base of second tarsomere as well as on entire third and fourth tarsomeres; on outer surface, tibia of hindleg black, tarsus black at middle of first tarsomere and at base of other tarsomeres.</p> <p>Male genitalia (Fig. 26). Uncus relatively stout, broad at base, narrowed to basal 1/3, subparallel to truncate apex. Gnathos ring-like. Valva narrowed at base, gradually widened to basal 1/3, subparallel from basal 1/3 to obtusely rounded apex; costa banded, reaching middle length of costal margin; transtilla lobes uniformly banded, extending obliquely dorsad, joined mesially by membrane; sacculus slightly shorter than 1/3 length of valva, subtriangular, narrowed from wide base to apex, with a small apical spine hooked dorsad. Saccus triangular, apex obtusely rounded. Juxta narrowly banded; lateral arm slender, curved. Aedeagus longer than 2/3 length of valva, almost tubular, trilobed distally: first divided into two lobes from middle, one lobe furcate distally.</p> <p>Female genitalia (Fig. 32). Apophyses anteriores about half length of apophyses posteriores. Eighth sternal plate relatively narrow. Antrum slightly widened posteriorly. Ductus bursae membranous, not distinctly separated from corpus bursae. Corpus bursae elongate elliptical, without signum.</p> <p>Distribution. China (Fujian, Zhejiang).</p> <p>Etymology. The specific epithet is from the Latin tri- and lobatus, referring to the distally trilobed aedeagus.</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03C787D9F16DFF8EDB85F96BFA4D1DE9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
