Habitus as in Fig. 3A; TBL 3.34���4.05 mm, FBL 2.07���2.36 mm; head black, pronotal disc, elytra, abdomen and most parts of legs reddish-brown, antennomeres I���IV, mouthparts, and tarsi yellowish-brown. Head sub-triangular, HL 0.38���0.47 mm, HW 0.66���0.71 mm, with fine punctures; eyes prominent, EyL 0.14 mm; antenna elongate, AnL 1.46���1.65 mm, relative lengths of antennomeres I���XI: 1.25: 1: 1.25: 1.25: 1.25: 1: 1: 1: 1: 1: 1.5. Pronotum strongly transverse, PL 0.6 6��� 0.75 mm, PW 1.27���1.32 mm, PI 0.52���0.57. Elytra slightly transverse, EL 0.81���0.99 mm, EW 1.18���1.27 mm, EI 0.76���0.78. Abdominal surface with microsculpture consisting of transverse waves; tergite VIII (Fig. 4A) with four relatively long lobes, inner lobes much longer than outer ones; sternite VII (Fig. 4B) shallowly and narrowly emarginate at middle along posterior margin, granules sparsely arranged in sub-rectangular area; sternite VIII (Fig. 4C) with four lobes, deeply and broadly incised between inner lobes, median length of sternite 0.75 times as long as depth. Length of aedeagus (Fig. 4 D���E) 0.60 mm, parameres short and broad, each slightly angulate at apex, strongly constricted at middle in lateral view. Female. General habitus (Fig. 3B) similar to male. Measurements: TBL 3.63���4.0 mm, FBL 2.26���2.40 mm, HL 0.38���0.47 mm, HW 0.66���0.71 mm, EyL 0.14 mm, AnL 1.55���1.70 mm, PL 0.71���0.75 mm, PW 1.32���1.41 mm, PI 0.53���0.54, EL 0.94���1.08 mm, EW 1.27���1.37 mm, EI 0.74���0.79. Tergite VIII (Fig. 4F) with four lobes, inner lobes slightly longer than outer ones, with additional pair of processes along inner margins; sternite VIII (Fig. 4G) with six lobes, fimbriate lobes longer than others. Comparative notes. Tachinus centralis is most similar to T. striatulus Ullrich, described based on a single female from northeastern Myanmar, in sharing an additional pair of processes along the inner margins of the inner lobes of female tergite VIII. Females of these two species can be tentatively separated by the incisions between the inner and outer lobes being distinctly deeper than that between the inner lobes, and the relatively much longer median and outer lobes of sternite VIII in the new species. Distribution. China: Shaanxi, Hubei, Chongqing, Sichuan (Fig. 12). Etymology. The specific epithet indicates the distribution of this species in central China.
