Huo Qing-Bo and Zhu Bin-Qing. Paratypes: 5 ♂♂, same data as holotype.</p> <p>Etymology. This new species is named after the place of collecting.</p> <p>Diagnosis and remarks. Rhopalopsole wuyishanensis is a member of the R. shaanxiensis group as proposed by Sivec et al. (2008). The new species is most similar to R. yajunae Li &amp; Yang, 2010. Sternum 9 of R. wuyishanensis and R. yajunae, are both ornamented with a trapezoidal darker area, posteriorly bearing a triangular spine. Cerci of both are lacking a spine, and they are also sharing a similar epiproct. The two species can be distinguished as follows: in R. yajunae, tergum 10 has a central plate with light rougosities flanked by two lateral bars. In dorsal view, lateral spines originate from a quadrate plate, extend upwards and backwards, ending in two points. However, in R. wuyishanensis, the central plate of tergum 10 has rougosities but is flanked by two, almost invisible lateral bars. Lateral projections of tergum 10 extend a rectangular process that is not forked in either the dorsal or lateral view.</p> <p>The new species is also similar to Rhopalopsole faciursina Qian &amp; Du, 2017. The males share similarly shaped subanal lobes and central plates of tergum 10 but can be distinguished as follows: in R. wuyishanensis, the central plate of tergum 10 is covered by a broad patch of sensilla basiconica in the posterior half, and less sclerotized in the anterior half. Lateral projections of tergum 10 are extending apically and dorsally with a rectangular process and a strongly sclerotized apex. Epiproct thick at base, ending in a rounded point. In R. faciursina, the central plate of tergum 10 lacks an obvious sensilla basiconica patch in the posterior half, and a pair of triangular sclerites are added laterally. Lateral projections of tergum 10 are with rounded apex, not expanding backwards. Epiproct thick and erect, its tip is acute in top view.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03DE87AC086C9B514EC9FEE3FD89F87D	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Body length 6.8–7.2 mm, forewing length 6.7–7.1 mm, hindwing length 4.8–5.1 mm (N=3). Head brown, wider than pronotum; ocelli pale brown; antennae and palpi light brown (Fig. 5A). Pronotum brown. Legs light brown. Wings hyaline and veins light brown.</p> <p>Male terminalia. (Figs. 5B, 6–7) Tergum 9 mostly sclerotized but weakly on median area, with a small oval sclerotized process on hind margin. Sternum 9 basally with flabelliform vesicle bearing dense hairs, apically with a rounded triangular subgenital plate. Tergum 10 is bearing a large central plate covered with sensilla basiconica patch in two oval, lightly sclerotized posteromedial areas. Transverse plates roughly triangular with inner section strongly sclerotized. Lateral projections of tergum 10 thin, its long and sinuous process is pointing medially and dorsally. The processes meet each other above the posteromedial portion of the segment. Epiproct thick at base, hook-like, not tapering appreciably along its course, ending in a shallow trilobed process as seen in dorsal view. Subanal lobes of medium size, with weak ventral furrows.

Yang Yu-Ben and Zhu Bin-Qing. Paratypes: 2 ♂♂, same data as holotype.</p> <p>Etymology. The species name refers to the trilobed process at the end of the epiproct.</p> <p>Diagnosis and remarks. Rhopalopsole trichotoma is a member of the R. dentata group as proposed by Sivec et al. (2008). The new species is most similar to Rhopalopsole wulingensis Sivec &amp; Shimizu, 2008. The males share the similar shape of subanal lobes, lateral projections and epiproct, but can be distinguished as follows. In R. trichotoma, the edge of tergum 9 is smooth. Tergum 10 is bearing a large central plate with sensilla basiconica patches in two oval areas. However, in R. wulingensis, there is a short bottle-shaped sclerotized plate on hind margin of tergum 9, it bears an upturned arched rib, barely projecting beyond the posterior margin of tergum 9, and there is no obvious oval area on tergum 10.</p> <p>The new species is also similar to Rhopalopsole duyuzhoui Sivec &amp; Harper, 2008. They share the similar epiproct and lateral projections.After we checked the holotype and paratypes of R. duyuzhoui, we found that the two species can be distinguished on the basis of a different tergum 10. In R. duyuzhoui, the middle of the central plate is covered with a band of scale-like cuticular ornamentations. However, in R. trichotoma, the central plate is covered with a pair of oval sensilla basiconica patches. We think paired, oval patches of sensilla basiconica are unique to this new species.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03DE87AC086E9B554EC9FAB6FEEDFF78	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
