Measurements (in mm) and ratios: BL 8.95 – 9.12, FL 4.44 – 4.51, HL 1.14 – 1.16, HW 1.25 – 1.27, AnL 2.37 – 2.45, PL 1.60 – 1.65, PW 1.32 – 1.37, EL 0.91 – 0.96, AL 1.60 – 1.67, HL / HW 0.90 – 0.91, HW / PW 0.93 – 0.94, HL / PL 0.70 – 0.71, PL / PW 1.20 – 1.21, EL / PL 0.56 – 0.58. Habitus as in Fig. 1 A. Body dark brown with paler apex, legs brown, antennae brown to light brown. Head: punctation moderately coarse and sparse, somewhat sparser in median dorsal portion; interstices with distinct microsculpture. Eyes moderately small and composed of approximately 70 ommatidia. Pronotum parallel-sided; punctation somewhat sparser than that of head; impunctate midline broad; interstices without microsculpture. Elytral punctation fine and moderately dense. Hind wings completely reduced. Protarsi with distinct sexual dimorphism. Abdomen with fine and moderately dense punctation, that of tergite VII somewhat sparser than that of anterior tergites; interstices with shallow, but distinct microsculpture; posterior margin of tergite VII without palisade fringe; tergite VIII with weakly pronounced sexual dimorphism. Male. Posterior margin of tergite VIII (Fig. 2 D) nearly truncate; sternites III – IV unmodified; sternites III – IV unmodified; sternite V (Fig. 2 A) with dark stout setae in large postero-median impression and at middle of posterior margin with cluster of numerous point-like setae; sternite VI (Fig. 2 B) similar to sternite V, but with larger posteromedian impression and without point-like setae posteriorly; sternite VII (Fig. 2 C) strongly transverse, without modified setae, posterior margin broadly concave; sternite VIII (Fig. 2 E) transverse and nearly symmetric, with moderately extensive median impression posteriorly, this impression with numerous distinctly modified, stout blackish setae, posterior excision deeply concave; aedeagus as in Figs 2 F – H; ventral process apically acute; dorsal plate with large apical portion and short basal portion; internal sac with three sclerotized spines of different shapes. Female. Posterior margin of tergite VIII weakly convex; posterior margin of sternite VIII convexly produced. Comparative notes. It resembles L. songi Peng & Q. - L. Li, 2015 from Baishanzu in Zhejiang in body size, the chaetotaxy of the male sternite VII, and the presence of three sclerotized spines in the internal sac of the aedeagus. Lathrobium chengi is distinguished from L. songi by the the chaetotaxy of the male sternite IV – VI, the deeper posterior excision of the male sternite VIII, the more slender ventral process of the aedeagus. For illustrations of L. songi see Peng et al.

Abdomen with fine and dense punctation, that of tergite VII sparser than that of anterior tergites; interstices with shallow microsculpture; posterior margin of tergite VII without palisade fringe; tergite VIII with distinct sexual dimorphism. Male. Posterior margin of tergite VIII (Fig. 3 D) weakly convex; sternites III – IV unmodified; sternite V (Fig. 3 A) with dense dark setae in very large postero-median impression and at middle of posterior margin with cluster of numerous point-like setae; sternite VI (Fig. 3 B) similar to sternite V, but with larger postero-median impression; sternite VII (Fig. 3 C) strongly transverse, with shallow median impression posteriorly, this impression with short blackish setae, posterior margin weakly concave in the middle; sternite VIII (Fig. 2 G) with moderately asymmetric and extensive median impression posteriorly, this impression with numerous distinctly modified, stout blackish setae, posterior excision small and asymmetric; aedeagus as in Figs 2 F – H; ventral process asymmetric in lateral view, apically acute in ventral view; dorsal plate with long, large apical portion and with short, weakly sclerotized basal portion; internal sac with two sclerotized spines of different shapes and without ring-shaped structure. Female. Posterior margin of tergite VIII convex; posterior margin of sternite VIII convexly produced posteriorly. Comparative notes. The new species resembles L. yui Peng & Q. - L. Li, 2015 from Fengyangshan Natural Reserve, Zhejiang in having similar postero-median impressions on the male sternites V – VI, a weakly concave posterior margin of the male sternite VII and the similarly derived structure of the aedeagus. It is distinguished from L. yui by the chaetotaxy of the male sternite VI, the extensive median impression of the male sternite VIII, and the shape of the ventral process of the aedeagus.
