Résumé fourni par la source

Dicopomorpha longita (Aishan, 2023), comb. nov. Litus longitus Aishan in Sharengaowa et al., 2023: 47‒52. Holotype ♀ [Xinjiang University Insect Specimen Museum]: Yigong Township, Bomi County, Nyingchi City, Tibet, China, 30.302°N, 94.796°E, 2254 m, August 2020 (MT), coll. Wu Qingtao. Paratypes: 2 ♀♀, same data as the holotype. Material not examined. Diagnosis (in part according to Sharengaowa et al. 2023). All six funicle segments longer than wide; scape 8× as long as wide; pedicel 2.3× as long as wide, F1 the shortest funicle segment and shorter than pedicel; F2–F5 subequal in length and as long as pedicel; clava 4.5× as long as wide and longer than combined length of F1–F3, with 2 mps. Fore wing 11.4× as long as wide, with one row of microtrichia closer to posterior margin, 3 rows of microtrichia below venation, and 4 rows of michrotrichia at the apex, longest marginal seta 33× maximum wing width. Male. Unknown. Host. Unknown. Distribution. Palaearctic region. China (Tibet). Remarks. Sharengaowa et al. (2023) placed their species in Litus because the female has only 6 funiculars, as for species of Litus. However, the other features clearly show that the species belongs in Dicopomorpha, and hence the generic transfer proposed herein. Unfortunately, it was not possible to examine the type material, but the new combination is based on the original description and illustrations of this species. Body in dorsal view, head, fore wing and antenna are well illustrated. Antenna does not have a ring-like F2.
