Lisubatrus dongzhiweii sp. nov., here designated.</p> <p>Diagnosis. Head rectangular; lacking frontal rostrum; with punctiform vertexal foveae; posterolateral margins of head with row of dense setae; ocular-mandibular carinae distinct; antennomeres elongate, antennal club formed by apical three antennomeres. Pronotum slightly elongate, lacking foveae, with one pair of antebasal spines. Elytra lacking basal foveae and discal striae, strongly constricted at base and apex. Abdomen with thick triangular discal carinae on tergite IV (first visible tergite), lacking marginal carinae; tergite IV longest, much longer than tergites V–VIII combined.</p> <p>Description. Body (Fig. 1) elongate, strongly constricted between pronotum and elytra, and between elytra and abdomen. Body length less than 2 mm. Head (Figs 2B–C) rectangular; lacking frontal rostrum, antennal tubercles indistinct; vertexal foveae small and punctiform, lacking sulcus connecting foveae; posterolateral margins of head with row of gold, thick setae; antennae (Fig. 2A) with 11 antennomeres, clubs formed by apical three antennomeres, antennomeres XI largest, elongate and conical; ocular-mandibular carinae distinct; eyes nearly oval; maxillary palpi with short and triangular palpomeres III, palpomeres IV fusiform, widest at middle; gular region with single fovea just anterior of occipital constriction. Pronotum (Figs 2B–C) slightly elongate, rounded at lateral margins, constricted and parallel-sided at basal fourth, lacking any foveae or carinae, antebasal spines present, antebasal sulcus distinct at sides, faint in middle; disc slightly convex; lacking paranotal carinae; prosternum with small procoxal foveae. Elytra (Fig. 2D) constricted at base and at apex; lacking basal foveae, lacking discal striae, with complete sutural striae; lacking marginal striae; weak humeri present. Posterior margin of metaventrite (Fig. 2E) with small split. Abdomen (Fig. 2F) constricted at base; tergite V largest, much longer than remaining tergites combined, lacking lateral carinae, with thick, triangular discal carinae; tergites V–VI short, subequal in length, VII as long as V and VI combined. Legs with tarsomeres II slightly longer than tarsomeres III. Males with head, and meso- and metatrochanters modified. Aedeagus (Figs 3C–E) with parameres fused with median lobe to form elongate ventral lobe.</p> <p>Relationships. The new genus is placed in the group of genera related to Dendrolasiophilus (Fig. 4A), which also includes the genera Songius (Fig. 4B) and Tangius (Fig. 4C). These taxa form a small myrmecophilous lineage within the Asian Batrisitae, sharing a usually glabrous body, presence of a setose tuft at the basolateral margins of the head, and aedeagus with a large basal capsule, and a well-developed dorsal lobe. Lisubatrus can be readily separated from these genera by the elongate antennomeres, a sub-cylindrical pronotum rounded at the lateral margins, elytra strongly constricted apically, and predominantly enlarged abdominal tergite IV. The genera Maajappia Nomura, 2010 (Fig. 4D) from Japan, and Myrmicophila Yin &amp; Li, 2011 from China may also belong to this group based on the general body form and aedeagal structures, but both these genera lack the cephalic setose tufts (NOMURA 2008, 2010; YIN et al. 2011). Maajappia have a distinct U-shaped sulcus connecting vertexal foveae, and were collected from leaf litter samples, whereas Myrmicophila have modified antennomeres V in the male, and are hosted by Myrmica ants. The key given below serves to a quick separation of Lisubatrus from all these likely allied genera.</p> <p>Etymology. The new generic name is derived from ‘ Lisu ’, the name of the local minority ethnic group, and combined with ‘ batrus ’, an arbitrary abbreviation of Batrisus. The gender is masculine.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/DE1087CC2F44F17BFE31FC68FEBDFCA6	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

(SNUC).</p> <p>Diagnosis. Same as the genus, with the following additions: vertex with an acute spine in middle; antennomeres II–VII distinctly elongate, VIII shorter than VII, IX–XI much wider than previous ones; mesotrochanter with a blunt ventral projection; metatrochanter with a long, apically curved projection; aedeagus with dorsal lobe bifurcate at the apex.</p> <p>Description. Male (Fig. 1). Length 1.91 mm. Body uniformly reddish-brown, mouth parts, tibiae and tarsi lighter in color.</p> <p>Head (Figs 2B–C) sub-rectangular, slightly wider than long, length from clypeal anterior margin to head base 0.33 mm, width across eyes 0.44 mm, glabrous, dorsum sparsely with long setae; vertex with small, punctiform foveae at level of posterior margin of eyes, lacking sulcus connecting foveae, and lacking lateral carinae, posterolateral margins with row of dense setae; antennae (Fig. 2A) long and slender, distinct clubs formed by apical three antennomeres, antennomeres I–VIII strongly elongate, IX–XI enlarged. Pronotum (Figs 2B–C) about as long as wide, widest at middle, length along midline 0.43 mm, maximum width 0.41 mm; disc glabrous, setation similar to that of head; pronotum lacking foveae, with pair of small, acute antebasal spines. Elytra (Fig. 2D) slightly wider than long, strongly constricted at base and at apex; length along suture 0.64 mm, maximum width 0.68 mm; lacking basal foveae and discal striae, with shallow but complete sutural striae, lacking marginal fovea and striae, humeri slightly angulate. Mesoventrite (Fig. 2E) with pair of distinct lateral carinae. Metaventrite (Fig. 2E) more densely setose in middle than at lateral portions; posterior margin with small notch in middle. Mesotrochanters with broad and blunt projection on ventral margin (Fig. 2E); metatrochanters with long, apically curved ventral projection. Tergite IV (Fig. 2F) predominantly large, much longer than tergites V–VII combined; with pair of thick, triangular discal carinae, lacking marginal carinae and distinct basal impression, tergites V and VI subequal in length at middle, VII longer than V and VI combined, VIII (Fig. 3A) transverse, with broad emargination at middle of posterior margin. Sternite IV longer than V–VIII combined, with broad and flat basolateral ridges, sternites V–VII subequal in length in midline, sternite VIII (Fig. 3B) strongly transverse, and with rounded posterior margin. Length of aedeagus (Figs 3C–E) 0.32 mm; aedeagal median lobe with large, transverse basal bulb and foramen, and round and bent apex; with flat and weakly sclerotized ventral membrane; dorsal lobe broad at base and narrowed apically, bifurcate at apex.</p> <p>Female. Unknown.</p> <p>Biology. The single specimen was collected by a Malaise trap, so the exact habitat of this species is unknown at the moment. However, as inferred from the presence of cephalic setose tufts at the posterolateral margins of the head and glabrous body, which are typical character states shared by a number of allied genera that exclusively include myrmecophilous species, Lisubatrus dongzhiweii is likely an inquiline of ants as well.</p> <p>Distribution. This species in currently known only from the type locality in Yunnan, southwestern China.</p> <p>Etymology. The new species is dedicated to Zhi-Wei Dong, who collected the holotype.</p></div> 	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/DE1087CC2F40F178FE73FE4CFB80FB61	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
