    A. serrulatus Yu & Yang, sp. nov. (Figs 26–37) Type material. Holotype, ♂, Linzhi, Tibet, 3. July. 2012, coll. Maofa Yang. Length: ♂ 4.7mm. Body yellowish (Fig 26). Ocellus circled with off-white streak (Fig 28). Coronal suture not reaching anterior margin of crown, with white stripe along suture (Fig 26). Face yellowish, clypeus with a median off-white streak (Fig 27). Pronotum with yellowish irregular spot at anterior margin, posterior margin semitransparent (Fig 26). Scutellum yellowish (Fig 26). Forewing yellowish-white, semitransparent; hindwing hyaline (Fig 26). Abdomen yellowish. Legs yellowish except claws brown. Male ventral abdominal apodemes reaching segment 5 (Fig 30). Male pygofer with setae, infuscated, ventral pygofer appendage curved, apex truncate, distinctly serrate in dorsal view; dorsal bridge nearly 1 / 3 length of pygofer, lateral lobes well developed (Figs 29, 31). Subgenital plate extended beyond pygofer, with 2 rows of 20 macrosetae, 3 rows of ca. 45 elongate and feeble microsetae, ca. 26 marginal setae and 4 basal group macrosetae (Fig 32). Paramere elongate, sinuate, apex denticulate, with subapical setae and sensory pits (Fig 33). Aedeagus in ventral view slightly expanded near midlength, with subapical arc expanded, both expanded dorsad in lateral view, apex narrow in dorsal view; tapering in lateral view (Figs 34, 35). Anal tube process short, sinuate, apex acute, dorsal margins slightly irregular (Fig 36). Connective distinctly longer than wide, with V-shaped posterior emargination. Etymology. The new species name alludes to the serrate pygofer appendage. Remarks. The new speices is different from others in having the anal tube process short and broad with irregular margins (Fig 36); the aedeagus tapering in lateral view (Fig 35); and the pygofer appendage apically truncate and serrate (Fig 31).Published as part of Yu, Xiaofei & Yang, Maofa, 2014, Four new species of Alebroides Matsumura (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Typhlocybinae) from China, pp. 248-262 in Zootaxa 3780 (2) on page 250, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3780.2.2, http://zenodo.org/record/23041

The name of the new species refers to the medially inflated basal aedeagal process. Remarks. The new species differs distinctly from others in the genus in the shape of the paramere apex (Fig. 31) and aedeagal process with three pairs of branches (Figs 32, 33).Published as part of Yu, Xiaofei & Yang, Maofa, 2015, Five new species of Ishiharella Dworakowska (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Typhlocybinae) with a key to worldwide species of the genus, pp. 571-580 in Zootaxa 4000 (5) on pages 575-576, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4000.5.6, http://zenodo.org/record/23823
