Agnesiella (Agnesiella) hamaculeata Wang & Liu & Zhang & Huang 2024, sp. nov.

Agnesiella (A.) hamaculeata Wang & Huang sp. nov. (Figs 17–20, 53, 91–97) Measurement. Male, 3.10–3.25 mm (including wings). Description. Body mostly brown (Figs 17, 18). Face light brown with brown transverse stripes, remaining parts largely dark brown (Fig. 20). Vertex pale brown medially, remaining parts mostly pale yellow, with a brown patches along anterior margin. Pronotum with anterior margin medially yellow, brown median area, some greyish-brown and blackish brown patches on remaining parts; triangles light brown, scutellum yellowish-brown basally, brown apically (Fig. 19). Forewing with pale yellow area near anterior margin medially, basal 2/3 with one brown band each at base, middle and apical part; MP''+CuA' veins and 3rd apical cell with brown patches, one black patch at each end of brochosome area (Fig. 53). Abdominal apodemes extending to apex of 6th abdominal sternite (Fig. 91). Male pygofer with some scattered setae, prominently extended posteroventral angle with some small protuberances; a horn-like pygofer process bearing 2 rigid setae (Figs 92, 93). Subgenital plate with distal part bearing some long fine setae and small rigid setae; a distinct protrusion subapically, apex with a few peg-like setae (Fig. 94). Style with a short, finger-like subapical process directed away from apical part (Figs 94, 95). Connective stem slender, without prominent central lobe (Fig. 94). Aedeagal shaft slender, apex with plate-like expansions dorsally and ventrally (Fig. 96). Specimens examined. Holotype: ♂, CHINA, Yunnan Province, Lijiang City, Laojun Mountain National Geopark, Liming Scenic Area, 2200m, 30 Jun 2022, coll. Junjie Wang. Paratype: 2♂ 2♀, same data as holotype; 2♂, CHINA, Yunnan Province, Gongshan Derung and Nu Autonomous County, Bingzhongluo Town, 1700m, 12 Jun 2019, coll. Lü Lin; 2♂ 1♀, CHINA, Yunnan Province, Lijiang City, Xinzhu Village, 2360m, 3 Jul 2022, coll. Junjie Wang. Remarks. The new species is similar to A. (A.) nigroflava sp. nov., but differs in the following characteristics: abdominal apodemes extending to apex of 6th abdominal sternite (Fig. 91); pygofer process with only 2 rigid setae (Fig. 93); style with subapical process directed away from apical part (Fig. 95). Etymology. This specific epithet is derived from the Latin words “hamus” and “aculeus”, referring to the barbed, hook-shaped distal half of style (Fig. 95).
