Frons (Figs 5E, 6B) in middle line longer than wide, at widest part about 2.56: 1, widest at apex, median carina simple. Base of postclypeus (Figs 5E, 6B) as wide apex of frons. Antennae (Figs 5E, 6B) with basal segment 1.15 × as long as wide, shorter than second segment (1: 1.90). Pronotum (Figs 5C, 6A) longer than vertex medially (1.16: 1). Mesonotum (Figs 5C, 6A) 2.28 × as long as vertex and pronotum together in middle line. Forewings (Fig. 5F) longer in middle line than broad at widest part (2.70:1), transverse venation located in middle near base.</p><p>MALE GENITALIA. Anal segment (Fig. 6C, F) ring-like, with a long ventral process medially. Pygofer (Fig. 6C–D) in profile with dorsal margin shorter than ventral margin, posterior margin slightly sinuate; opening in posterior view longer than wide, ventral margin broadly concave, without medioventral process. Genital styles (Fig. 6G–H) in posterior view very long and narrow, lateral margins subparallel, tapering apically, slightly divergent apically; in profile arched medially. Aedeagus without phyllobase. Phallus (Fig. 6I) stout, strongly curved dorsally at basal ⅓, thin and slightly curved ventrally at apical ⅓.</p><p>Host plant</p><p>Bambusoideae.</p><p>Distribution</p><p>China (Yunnan).</p><p>Remarks</p><p>This new species is similar to B. maculata Chen &amp; Li, 2000 in general appearance, but differs in the following: (1) genae, anteclypeus and lateral sides of postclypeus (Fig. 5E) dark brown (vs genae and clypeus (Chen &amp; Li 2000: fig. 2) pale yellowish white in B. maculata); (2) anal segment of male (Fig. 6C) with a ventral process medially (vs anal segment of male (Chen &amp; Li 2000: fig. 4) with a ventral process laterally on left side in B. maculata); (3) pygofer (Fig. 6C) without medioventral process (vs pygofer (Chen and Li 2000: fig. 8) with medioventral process developed in B. maculata); (4) genital styles (Fig. 6G) with apex not forked (vs genital styles (Chen &amp; Li 2000: fig. 7) with apex forked in B. maculata).</p><p>This new species is also similar to B. kunmingensis Yang &amp; Chen, 2011 in general appearance, but differs in the following: (1) forewings (Fig. 5F) with a hyaline macula at basal ⅓ (vs forewings (Yang &amp; Chen 2011: fig. 3) with entire basal ⅓ dark brown in B. kunmingensis); (2) anal segment of male (Fig. 6C, F) with a long ventral process medially (vs ventral margin of anal segment (Yang &amp; Chen 2011: fig. 6) without a process in B. kunmingensis); (3) genital styles (Fig. 6G) without a process (vs inner margin of genital styles (Yang &amp; Chen 2011: fig. 8) with an angular process near apical ¼ in B. kunmingensis); (4) aedeagus (Fig. 6I) without phyllobase (vs aedeagus (Yang &amp; Chen 2011: fig. 10) with phyllobase in B. kunmingensis).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/F5448432FE3F963AFDD44353FE0FFCCE	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
