80 Natura Somogyiensis Description of the new species Asiemphytus marshali spec. nov. (Figs. 1,2, 11 and 18) Flolotype: male, China, Shaanxi, Qinling mts., 1000-1300 m, Xunyangba 6 km E, 23. 05. - 13. 06. 1998,1. H. Marshal leg. Head ocker yellow; brown: area between 3 ocelli, small spots above antennae, central part of anterior mesonotal lobes; white: clypeus labrum. Antenna ocker yellow, apical 3 joints white. Thorax and abdomen ocker yellow; black: small spot between cenchri, and suffused spot on mesostemum; pale yellow: hind margin of pronotum, tegulae and abdominal tergites from tergite 4. Whole anterior 4 legs pale yellow with suffused tarsi, hind leg ocker yellow. Wings hyaline. Costa, subcosta dark yellow, stigma pale transparent yellow with dark yellow dorsal margin, veins brown. Anterior wing with 3 cubital cells. Basal and cubital veins meet in one point on subcosta. First recurrent vein joins to basal fifth of first discoidal cell. Hind wing with one closed middle cell. Anal vein of hind wing with short but clear petiole. Head strongly contracted behind eyes and rounded at hind comers of temples. OOL : POL : OCL: 10:3:11. Ratio of antennal segments: 14 : 7 : 25 : 32 : 19 : 22 : .15 : 12 : 12. Apical 3 antennal joints falttened. Antenna long, about as long as head, thorax and first 2 abdominal segments combined. Clypeus deeply and roundly emarginated, clypeal emargination about 0.65x as deep as clypeal median length. Gena linear. Postoccipital carina reaching up to 2/3 of eye. Postocellar furrows deep and paralell reaching hypothetic hind margin of head. Pentagonal frontal area not elevated and not bordered by ridges. Head smooth and shiny. Mesonotal lobes with shallow, small, moderately deep and dense punctures, shiny. Posterior part of mesoscutellum with deep, moderately large and moderately dense punctures, shiny. Mesoscutellar appendage with few deep, sporadic and moderately large punctures. Mesopleuron and mesepistemum with minute, moderately dense punctures and sporadic moderately deep, moderately large punctures, shiny. Mesoscutellum flat. Prepectus missing. Claw with inner tooth about half as large as apical, basal lobe not visible. Penis valve in Fig. 11. Length: 9.1 mm. In Wei 1997c also in Malaise 1963 this species runs to genus Asiemphytus Malaise, 1947 having Cell M in hind wing closed, claw with subapical tooth, basal lobe is missing (if present it is very minute, invisible) number of radial cells are 3, scape is longer than pedicell, basitarsi somewhat shorter than other tarsal segments combined including claw, clypeus is widely and deeply emarginated, aterior tibial spur is simple. The closest relative is Asiemphytus rufiscapus Wei, 1997 but penis valve completely different as in Fig. 18 in Wei 1997, compare with Fig. 11. Empronus sichuanensis spec. nov. (Figs. 3, 12 and 19) Holotype: male, China, Sichuan prov., road Meigu-Leibo vili., pass 15 km NE of Meigu, 28“ 25' N 103° 17' E, Dailang Shan Mts., 09-11. June 1998, Zd. Jindra and M. Tryzna lgt. Head, antenna, palpi, mouthparts, thorax black. Wings brown infuscate, costa, subcosta, stigma and veins black. Legs black, anterior side of first tibia dark brown, hind
