Agnesiella (Draberiella) elongata Dworakowska 1970, sp. nov.
Agnesiella (D.) elongata Wang & Huang sp. nov. (Figs 33–36, 57, 121–126) Measurement. Male, 3.10–3.25 mm (including wings). Description. Body mostly brown (Figs 33, 34). Face largely dark brown, frontoclypeal area light brown with brown transverse stripes, anteclypeus and lorum, genae mostly blackish brown, outer margins cream colored (Fig. 36). Vertex brown in the middle, anterior margin with a pair of black patches. Pronotum mostly brown with some pale yellow areas, a longitudinal oval black patch near anterior margin medially, three black patches near each lateral margin; triangles brown, scutellum yellow (Fig. 35). Forewing with beige area near anterior margin medially, basal 2/3 with light brown patches at base, middle and apical part; ScP+RA, MP''+CuA' veins and 3rd apical cell with brown patches, 2 dark brown patches at both ends of brochosome area (Fig. 57). Abdominal apodemes extending to middle of 6th abdominal sternite (Fig. 121). Male pygofer with 2 long fine setal groups, several small rigid setae clustered on slightly protruded posterodorsal margin; a digitiform dorsally curved pygofer process on posteroventral margin (Fig. 122). Subgenital plate with distal part bearing some long fine setae and small rigid setae, with a distinct protrusion subapically (Figs 122, 123). Style with a subapical process nearly as long as apical part, forming an obtuse angle with apical part (Figs 122, 123). Connective without prominent central lobe (Figs 123, 124). Aedeagal shaft slender, basally with an extremely long, dorsally curved ventral process with minute teeth along dorsal subapical margin (Figs 125, 126). Specimens examined. Holotype: ♂, CHINA, Xizang Autonomous Region, Zayü County, 1540m, 5 Jun 2019, coll. Lü Lin. Paratype: 3♂ 2♀, same data as holotype; 3♂ 1♀, CHINA, Xizang Autonomous Region, Motuo County, 1530m, 20 Jul 2022, coll. Qingquan Xue. Remarks. The new species is similar to A. (D.) longisagittata in the attachment site of the ventral process on aedeagal shaft, but differs in the following characteristics: pygofer process longer (Fig. 122); subapical process of style larger (Fig. 122); ventral process on aedeagal shaft unbranched (Fig. 125). Etymology. This specific epithet is derived from the Latin word “elongare”, referring to the extremely long ventral process on the aedeagal shaft (Figs 125, 126).
