03B787ADFF84FF81FD9509847B73330D.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis The new species is similar to Tachycines (Gymnaeta) sonlaensis Gorochov, 1990 with regard to the dorsal sclerite of the male genitalia, but differs from the latter by: projection of fastigium verticis is fully reduced; hind tibia has a lower number of dorsal spines (only 11 – 13 inner spines and 10 – 14 outer spines instead of 30 – 40 spines in T. (G.) sonlaensis); interno-dorsal spine is distinctly shorter than hind basitarsus instead of nearly equal in length to hind basitarsus in T.
