Asymmetritania vietnamensis Storozhenko 2021, comb. nov.
Asymmetritania vietnamensis (Storozhenko, 2020), comb. nov. Figs. 14, 25–33 Stolzia vietnamensis Storozhenko, 2020a: 16, figs. 1–5 (holotype —female, Vietnam, Dong Nai Province, Cat Tien National Park; in ZIN St. Petersburg). Bettotania asymmetrica: Storozhenko, 1998: 37 (misidentification). Non-type material examined. Southern Vietnam, Dong Nai province, Nam Cat Tien sector of the Cat Tien National Park (approximately 150 km north of Ho Chi Minh City), 8-15 December 1990, 1 male, leg. V. V. Badikov. Description. Male (previously unknown). Similar to female (Fig. 25) but smaller and brightly colored (Figs. 26–28). Head and pronotum as in female but upper half of the lateral lobes of pronotum completely black. Antennae 19-segmented. Pronotum rugose; prozona 1.3 times as long as metazona. Tegmina touching each other in rest position, reaching knees of hind femora (Fig. 26); median area widening apically, with numerous transverse veinlets forming intercalar vein in basal part of the area (Fig. 27). Hind femora stout, 3.1 times as long as their maximal width, olive green with yellow pregenicular ring; hind tibia with 8 outer and 9 inner dorsal spines, blackish olive green with black base and greenish ring below. Tenth abdominal tergite continuous, with pointed furculae. Supraanal plate long, with a median basal impression, lateral margins with a pointed tooth in apical third, apex rounded. Cerci compressed, conical, with pointed apex, preapical tooth absent. Apical abdominal sternites with tufts of setae on both sides of the middle. Epiphallus strongly asymmetrical; left lophus large, in lateral view lingua-like; right lophus enlarged, broadly rounded; ancorae absent. Phallus rather long and narrow (Fig. 32). Cingulum consisting of apodemes, zygoma, and rami. Apodemes completely sclerotized; ventral side of zygoma connected with arch of cingulum. Valves of cingulum completely covered by ectophallic sheath of penis. Basal valves of penis connected with apical ones by a short sclerotized flexure (Fig. 33). Measurements. Male (length in mm): body—14.8; antenna—9.5; pronotum—4.2; tegmen—9.5; hind femur— 8.5; hind tibia—7.0. Distribution. Vietnam. Remarks. The above described male from Vietnam was wrongly identified as Bettotania asymmetrica by me (Storozhenko, 1998). This male was collected in the Cat Tien National Park—a type locality of previously known by a single female Stolzia vietnamensis. Therefore I believe reasonably that both Vietnamese specimens are conspecific. The male of Asymmetritania vietnamensis differs from A. asymmetrica in the shape of cerci and epiphallus, as well as in the flexure connected basal and apical valves of penis (in A. asymmetrica, the cerci with a small preapical tooth, the right lophus of epiphallus very small, and the flexure membranous).Published as part of Storozhenko, Sergey Yu., 2021, On the exact position of the tribe Incolacridini in the modern classification of grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Acrididae), pp. 106-118 in Zootaxa 4970 (1) on page 115, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4970.1.3, http://zenodo.org/record/475601

On genre peculiarities of works by O. Storozhenko and V. Korolenko narrating an encounter of man and devil
В статье анализируются жанровые особенности повести О. Стороженко «Влюбленный черт» и «малорусской сказки» В. Г. Короленко «Судный день».
В обоих произведениях происходит встреча человека с чертом. У О. Стороженко
фантастика, как и в сказке, явная, в «Судном дне» фантастика имеет завуалированный
характер. По своей природе произведение В. Г. Короленко ближе к нравственно-
психологической фантастической повести.У статті аналізуються жанрові особливості повісті О. Стороженка «Закоханий чорт» і «малоросійської казки» В. Г. Короленка «Судний день». В обох творах відбувається зустріч людини з чортом. В О. Стороженка фантастика, як і в казці, є явною, тоді як у «Судному дні» фантастика має завуальований характер.
За своєю природою твір В. Г. Короленка є ближчим до морально-психологічної фантастичної повісті.The author of this article contemplates rather a curious problem that is illustrative for
understanding the poetics of the Russian literature of the 19th century, — intensification
of an element of convention in the fiction. By recurring to the genre of a fairy tale, both
O. Storozhenko, a Romanticist, and V. G. Korolenko, a representative of the literary realism
of the last third of the 19th century, succeeded in expressing the national model of the
world. The writers correlated the events happening to their contemporary with the universal,
supertemporal categories. The author of this article draws on the advanced and most
promising, as they seem to be nowadays, literary strategies: mythopoetics and narratology,
in particular; works by V. I. Tyupa.
The analysis of the works by O. Storozhenko and V. G. Korolenko dedicated to an
encounter of man and the devil enables to conclude that the fantasy by Storozhenko is
express, like in a fairy tale. The fantasy in the work by V. Korolenko is implicit.
The singularity of the Little Russian fairy tale «The Judgement Day» is a peculiar
flavour of convention; speaking of this work; development of a psychological insight can
be mentioned.
The plot of the novel «A Devil In Love» by O. Storozhenko ascends to fairy tales and
legendry and has an express mythopoetic core
