SOME NEW SPECIES OF CHINESE HISHIMONUS AND HISHIMONOIDES (HOMOPTERA: CICADELLIDAE)

This paper deals with the descriptions of seven new species of the genus Hishi-monus Ishihara and a new species of the genus Hishimonoides Ishihara collected from China.All type specimens are deposited in Anhwei Agricultural College.Hishimonus reflexus sp.nov.(fig.1)This species differs from all other species in the genus by the marked turning at the apical edge of the shafts of the aedeagus.Holotype and allotype Chekiang. Hishimonus rectus sp.nov.(fig.2)Allied to H.sellatus (Uhler),separated by the absence of the concavity on the lateral margin of the shafts of the aedeagus,and the gonopore apical on posterior surface.Holotype Kwangsi.Hishimonus hamatus sp.nov.(fig.3)Allied to H.callisto Linnavuori,separated by the medial spot on the tegmina not extending to posterior apex of scutellum,the relatively slender stem of connective and relatively wider shafts of the aedeagus.Holotype and allotype Kiangsi.Hishimonus dichotomous sp.nov (fig.4)Allied to H.dividens Knight,separated by the relatively shorter shafts bifurcate apically of the aedeagus as well as the mesal branch not elongate.Holotype and allotype Yunnan.Hishimonus truncatus sp.nov.(fig.5)Allied to H.sellatus (Uhler),separated by the absence of the concavity on the lateral margin of the shafts of the aedeagus and the pointed apex a little truncated.Holotype and allotype Kwangtung.Hishimonus tortuosus sp.nov.(fig.6)Allide to H.amabilis Knight,separated by the shafts of the aedeagus gradually narrowed to a tortuse sharp apex,the basal processes straight.Holotype and allotype Hainan.Hishimonus spiniferous sp.nov.(fig.7)Allied to H.aberrans Knight,separated by the subgenital plates gradually narrowed posteriorly,the shafts of the aedeagus directed dorsoposteriorly from base with a pair processes arising near basally from posterior surface.Holotype and allotype Yunnan.Hishimonoides aurifascialis sp.nov.(fig.8)Allied to Hishimonoides sellatiformis Ishihara,separated by the vertex with a pale orange-yellow transverse fascia,the aedeagus outer margins of preventral para-physes with a acute angle,the styles long,extending beyond apices of the shafts.Holotype Szechwan,allotype Yunnan.
