| Popis: | BrephallusWang et al.,gen. n.is established as a genus distinct fromPseudophoraspisKirby, 1903 because of the lack of a well-developed apical outgrowth on sclerite L2D and substantial genetic differences. Two species are transferred to the new genus fromPseudophoraspis, i.e.,Brephallusfruhstorferi(Shelford, 1910),comb. n.andBrephallustramlapensis(Anisyutkin, 1999),comb. n.We provide a detailed generic diagnosis ofBrephallusWang et al.,gen. n.Based on COI data, males, females and nymphs of threePseudophoraspisspecies (P.clavellataWang et al., 2013,P.recurvataWang et al., 2013 andP.kabakoviAnisyutkin, 1999) were successfully matched. The former two are sexually dimorphic with macropterous males and micropterous females. Photos of the species from China are presented. |
