AA6D87E2394CFFA12BA3F9A3FA19FA1C.taxon	materials_examined	Type species: Blatta palliata Fabricius, 1798, designed by Kirby, 1904. Generic description. Tegmina and hind wings fully developed extending beyond end of abdomen or curtate, former with a forked radial vein, discoidal veins longitudinal; latter with radial vein forked, CuA simple or with 1 – 3 complete branches, apical triangle developed. Spines of front femur Type A 2 – 3; pulvilli on 4 proximal tarsomeres, tarsal claws symmetrical, simple, arolia present. First abdominal tergum of male unspecialized; seventh abdominal tergum specialized, with a medial depressed region containing setae or sometimes the depression is subobsolete and setae are absent; most species also have a lateral lobe on each side of the segment. Supra-anal plate symmetrical, with a subcercal (intercercal) process ventrally near the base of each cercus. Subgenital plate strongly asymmetrical, hind margin with various shaped processes bearing long spines; styli represented by 1 or 2 large processes, right stylus sometimes presents as a small cylindrical process. Male genitalia have the hook on the left side (L 3) and the median phallomere (L 2 vm) often with a slender rod or filament arising near or beyond the middle. Distribution. China, India, Nepal, Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Burma, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea.	en	Zhang, Sainan, Liu, Xianwei, Li, Kai (2019): A wingless species of the genus Hemithyrsocera Saussure (Blattodea: Ectobiidae) from China.

AA6D87E2394DFFA22BA3F9A5FE4EFDFB.taxon	materials_examined	Material examined. Holotype ♂, Yuping, Pingbian, Yunnan, China, elev. 2000 – 2200 m, 21 May 2009, leg. Xianwei Liu et al. Diagnosis. This new species is similar to H. vittata, but differs in the shortened tegmina, the absence of hind wings, the shape of supra-anal plate and subgenital plate. Measurements (mm). Male, overall length including tegmina 10.5; pronotum length × width 3.8 × 2.5; tegmina length 3.0. Description. Male. Body small. Vertex with interocular space slightly narrower than space between antennal sockets. Pronotum nearly elliptical, median section is the widest and hind margin slightly convex. Tegmina curtate and extending to the third abdominal tergum. Hind wings absent. Spines of front femur is Type A 3. The length of first hind tarsus is approximately the sum of the others; pulvilli on 4 proximal tarsomeres, tarsal claws symmetrical and simple, arolia present. First abdominal tergum unspecialized; seventh abdominal tergum specialized, with setae medially. Supra-anal plate symmetrical, hind margin wide and rounded (Fig. 1). Subgenital plate asymmetrical, lateral margins slightly concave, hind margin convex with spines and setae, one large process arising between the styli, apex spined (Fig. 2). Left stylus larger with apical spines; right stylus smaller with setae. Hook-like phallomere (Fig. 3) long and slender, sclerotized portion small and preapical hook-like. Coloration. Body yellowish brown (Figs 4 – 5). Vertex dark brown. Ocellar spot pale yellow. Antennae dark brown. Pronotum dark brown with complete yellow border. Tegmina pale brown. Legs brown. Abdominal terga and sterna brown. Female. Unknown. Etymology. The specific name hemiptera refers to the short tegmina of the new species. Discussion. The new species is quite different from other species of the genus as its tegmina extending to the third abdominal tergum and the hind wings absent, while other species have the tegmina and the hind wings well developed. Except this, the species fits all features of the genus Hemithyrsocera. As a result, we temporarily treated the new species under the genus. Distribution.
