C253A7695F73FF91FF6815022E34FCC6.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Stirellus is heterogeneous and the largest genus of Stenometopiini, distributed throughout the world. Extensive variation in external morphological features including body proportions and coloration explain why many varied forms were considered earlier to represent separate genera. Previously Khatri & Webb (2010) reported 3 known Stirellus species from Pakistan while Naveed et al. (2020) added 2 additional new species from Pakistan. Later, Shah et al. (2020) added 2 more species to the checklist. The present study will add 5 more to make a total of 12 species known from Pakistan.	en	Shah, Bismillah, Naveed, Hassan, Duan, Yani (2020): A new species and four new records of Stirellus Osborn & Ball (Hemiptera Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae: Stenometopiini) from Pakistan with a revised key to species.

C253A7695F7BFF9AFF68127B2E97FE82.taxon	discussion	Remarks. This species varies from other species of the genus in size and shape of crown, which is shorter and bluntly angulate at anterior margin, by the eyes surrounded with an orange band and the pronotum posterior region blackish with small dots. This species slightly resembles Stirellus daii Duan, Webb & Zhang in male genitalia but varies in external appearance. Its male genitalia also show resemblance with Stirellus rubrolineatus (Distant) but differ in the structure of the subgenital plate.	en	Shah, Bismillah, Naveed, Hassan, Duan, Yani (2020): A new species and four new records of Stirellus Osborn & Ball (Hemiptera Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae: Stenometopiini) from Pakistan with a revised key to species.
