Abstract: Woznessenskia brevisa Guo & Shi, 2011 Figs 5, 9 C, 11 A, B Woznessenskia brevisa Guo & Shi, 2011: 65. Woznessenskia brevisa; Cadena-Castañeda, 2019: 97; Bian, Liu & Yang, 2021: 235. Material examined. CHINA – Hainan Prov. • 1 ♂; Ledong, Jianfengling; 30 Jul 2023; Yifan Liu leg.; HBU • 1 ♀; Lingshui, Diaoluoshan; 10 Jul 2024; Jie Su leg.; HBU. Description of the female (based on collections from the same province as the type locality). No significant variation observed amongst conspecific specimens. Tegmina and wings. Wings elongate, surpassing apex of stretched hind tibia. Tegmen: R releases Rs near the middle, both forked near apical area; MA releases MP near the third base; CuA releases CuA 1 and CuA 2 near the third base; MP and CuA 1 shortly fuse near the middle; CuP unbranched, free throughout; with 4 anal veins. Hind wing slightly longer than tegmen (Fig. 11 A, B). Abdomen. Seventh abdominal sternite distinctly sclerotised, sclerotised area slightly longer than wide, with several transverse riffles near apical third, then suddenly strongly widened laterally and elevated forming a pair of auricular lateral lobes, apices rounded; posterior margin with an obtusely angular notch. Subgenital plate short, with numerous transverse riffles, apex slightly concave (Fig. 5 J). Cercus long conical, apex slightly acute. Ovipositor moderately upcurved, apex rounded (Fig. 5 K). Colouration. Body yellowish-brown. Fastigium verticis and occiput black, antennal socket with the edge black, antenna black; face with 1 black longitudinal stripe on lateral areas. Eyes brown. Pronotum with black stripe along entire margin, bearing 2 pairs of black spots. Tegmina and hind wings transparent, veins dark brown. Spines and spurs on fore and middle tibiae brown; apices of spines and spurs on hind femur and hind tibia brown. Measurements (mm). Body: ♂ 33.5, ♀ 28.3; pronotum: ♂ 7.7, ♀ 7.5; tegmen: ♂ 39.5, ♀ 38.4; hind femur: ♂ 16.8, ♀ 16.3; ovipositor: ♀ 15.5. Discussion. The original description of this species was based exclusively on a male specimen from type locality Changjiang, Hainan. The female specimen described herein, collected from locality Lingshui, Hainan, we tentatively attribute to the female of W. brevisa Guo & Shi, 2011. Distribution. China (Hainan, based on the existing specimens).
