TYPE LOCALITY.— China, Yunnan, Fugong County, Shiyueliang Township, 0 to 2 km w of Shibali on Shibali Road, 2300-2530 m. DERIVATION OF SPECIES NAME.— The species epithet, fugongensis, is derived from the name of the county (Xian) in which the holotype was collected, Fugong, and the Latin suffix, -ensis, denoting place. DIAGNOSIS.— Adults of this species (Fig. 7a) can be distinguished from those of all other species in the region by the following combination of character states: size large (BL = 5.8 to 6.0 mm), fully-winged, dorsum dark piceous to reddish brown, shiny, pronotum and elytra slightly iridescent; eyes convex, moderately projected; clypeus with four setae; mentum and submentum fused, submentum with six setae; pronotum small but transverse, ratio Pw/PL = 1.30, median basal area smooth, framed by two deep, oblique furrows, lateral explanation rather narrow, broadened only posteriorly, lateral margins with a short sinuation anterior to the sharp, rectangular or slightly acute basal angles; elytra with all discal striae evident and finely punctate, striae 1 to 4 moderately impressed, striae 5 to 8 more faintly impressed, parascutellar striole rather long, recurrent stria deeply impressed but abruptly terminated anteriorly, not connected with stria 5, intervals slightly convex, two discal seta (anterior and middle setae) present in stria 3, the anterior seta inserted within basal one-sixth of elytra, the middle seta inserted near elytral middle, preapical seta also present; median lobe of aedeagus of male (Fig. 7b) long and slender, endophallus with copulatory piece spoon-shaped. DESCRIPTION.— Size large, BL = 5.8 to 6.0 mm. Color of dorsum piceous to reddish brown, shiny, pronotum and elytra slightly iridescent, appendages paler, palpi yellowish tan. Head. Moderate in size, slightly elongate, eyes large, convex, moderately projected, their diameter more than two times length of tempora. Tempora short, only slightly convex and glabrous, joined to neck region at ca. 135° angle. Frons more or less flattened, with two pairs of supraorbital setae, frontal furrows distinct, impressed posterior to or beyond posterior supraorbital setae. Clypeus with four setae. Labrum with six setae, apical margin slightly concave. Mandibles slender; right mandible bidentate, the anterior tooth far forward and long, the basal tooth reduced, obtuse and blunt; left mandible with a very slender trifid process, formed from fusion of the retinaculum with premolar tooth. Palpi with apical palpomeres fusiform. Mentum and submentum fused. Mentum bifossulate, divided into three sectors, a median and two lateral parts, separated by two deep, longitudinal furrows; medial tooth simple, subtriangular with blunt apex, half as long as lateral lobes. Submentum with six setae subapically, gula broad. Genae with a single ventral seta on each side. Antennae of moderate length, with only four antennomeres extended beyond the pronotal base; antennonmeres 3 and 4 virtually the same length and each longer than antennomere 2. Pronotum. Rather small, moderately narrow posteriorly, ratio Pw/PL = 1.30, widest slightly anterior to middle, lateral margins with short sinuation just anterior to sharp, rectangular or slightly acute basal angles; pronotal disc convex, median longitudinal impression very fine and shallow,
