upwards and inwards. Penis sclerite very broad in lateral view, rounded distally and pointed proximally, in ventral view evenly narrow. In female terminalia the gonapophyses laterales of ninth abdominal segment fused - as it is usual in the subgenus Xeroconiopteryx. Female internal genitalia (Figs 8-9): bursa copulatrix well sclerotized, subtriangular in lateral view, roughly rectangular in ventral view, with elongated, dark pigmented, granular structure. Receptaculum seminis is a weakly sclerotized, elongated bladdery structure, without hairs or more sclerotized parts. Its duct is long and thin. Fertilization channel thin, rather long, originating from a small knob near to proximal end of receptaculum seminis. Median oviduct very weakly sclerotized. Accessory gland is a rather wide, long, curved sac, with a long, narrow duct. Remarks - Because of the special structure of the branched stylus, this new species belongs to the hitherto monotypic Coniopteryx (Xeroconiopteryx) mongolica group (SZIRÁKI 2005). The main distinctive features of the new species are: 1) very long processus terminális of the hypandrium; 2) large (broad and rather long) gonarcus; 3) relatively short distal part of paramere, which only slightly bent upwards; 4) shortened forewing, and reduced hindwing of female. Etymology - I dedicate this new species to FERENC KlNÁL (RIPP), who found the type specimens of this interesting coniopterygid in the course of the very conscientious selection of the tremendous insect material captured by D-VAC instrument in the type locality.
