    Cyrta incurvata (Wei & Zhang) comb. n. Placidus incurvatus Wei & Zhang, 2003: 91, Figs 1–7 Remarks. This species is very similar to the species which was figured by Evans (1971) as Placidus hornei Distant in having the elongate male pygofer and the large inner bifurcate process. It can be distinguished from the latter and other species of the genus by the colour pattern on the head and shape of both the style and male valve.Published as part of Wei, Cong & Zhang, Yalin, 2008, The identity of the oriental leafhopper genera Cyrta Melichar and Placidus Distant (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Stegelytrinae), with description of a new genus, pp. 1-27 in Zootaxa 1793 on page 6, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18257

This species is similar to P. melanosoma (see discussion of P. melanosoma). It is also similar to P. cinctulata and may be distinguished as follows (P. cinctulata in parentheses): punctures on mesepisternum not rough, their diameter and depth regular, and distances between them regular (punctures on mesepisternum rough, their diameter and depth irregular, distances between them also irregular); mesoscutellum, mesoscutellar appendage and metascutellum with white (dorsum of thorax completely black); outer part of hind coxa with a large white spot, hind trochanter white, hind femur black (hind coxa completely black, hind trochanter black, basal 1 / 3 of hind femur white); labrum and clypeus white, medially with black spots (labrum dark brown, anterior and posterior margin white, clypeus completely black). Except for the serrulae and punctures on mesepisternum, reliable morphological differences between these three species were not found.Published as part of Zhong, Yihai, Li, Zejian & Wei, Meicai, 2015, Six new Chinese species of the Pachyprotasis melanosoma group (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae) with a key to the species, pp. 1-45 in Zootaxa 3914 (1) on page 12, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3914.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/28770

Relation to host: The mites are vagrant on the undersurface of leaves, no visible damage symptom.

    Genus Chiacaphyllisa n. gen. TYPE SPECIES. — Chiacaphyllisa syzygii n. sp. ETYMOLOGY. — Chi, meaning “ China ”. The genus designation is derived from the combination Chi - and the name of the genus Acaphyllisa Keifer, 1978, to which the new genus is similar in morphology. DIAGNOSIS. — Body spindle; prodorsal shield with frontal lobe; dorsal pedipalp genual setae (d) bifurcate; scapular tubercles ahead of rear shield margin; scapular setae (sc) directed mediad; coxae with sternal line; anterolateral setae on coxisternum I (1b) absent, leg with usual segments and setae; empodium divided, dorsal opisthosoma with three ridges, middorsal ridge ending in a broad furrow before the termination of subdorsal ridges; opisthosoma with all usual setae. REMARKS The new taxon is assigned to Eriophyoidea, Eriophyidae, Phyllocoptinae, Acaricalini.The new genus is similar to Acaphyllisa Keifer, 1978, but can be differentiated by anterolateral setae on coxisternum I (1b) absent (anterolateral setae on coxisternum I [1b] present in Acaphyllisa; see Keifer 1978). The new genus is also similar to Acaphylla Keifer, 1943 and Paracaphyllisa Kuang & Luo, 2004, but can be differentiated by anterolateral setae on coxisternum I (1b) absent and antaxial genual setae (l’’) of leg II present (anterolateral setae on coxisternum I [1b] present in Acaphylla and antaxial genual setae [l’’] of leg II absent in Acaphylla and Paracaphyllisa; see Keifer 1943; Kuang & Luo 2004).Published as part of Li, De-Wei, Wang, Guo-Quan & Wei, Sui-Gai, 2010, Description of a new genus and four new species of Acaricalini (Acari, Eriophyidae, Phyllocoptinae) from South China, pp. 233-245 in Zoosystema 32 (2) on page 234, DOI: 10.5252/z2010n2a2, http://zenodo.org/record/452096
