Abstract
This paper describes three new species and a new record of the genus Anatkina Young from China.ThetypespecimensaredepositedinGuizhouUniversity. 1 Anatkina wufengana Yang et Du,sp.nov. (Fig 1) Length(incl.teg.):♂ 9 1?mm. This species has unique red stripes pattern on pronotum and forewing,the shape of aedeagus is also different from that of any other species of the genus. Holotype♂,Hubei Province:Wufeng county,1999-07-10,coll. DU Yan Li. The specific name refers to the type locality. 2 Anatkina zhoui Yang et Li,sp.nov.(Fig 2) Length(incl.teg.):♂ 15 2?mm. This species is closely related to Anatkina nigriventris Li,but its pronotum with two black spots and a cross black stripe instead of six black spots;scutellum with two basal black maculae mixed at base;the shape of male pygofer process,subgenital plate and aedeagus also distinctly different from the latter. Holotype♂,Guangxi Province:Daqing Mt.,1986-05-22,coll.ZHOU Zhi Hong. The specific name is a patronym in honor of the collector. 3 Anatkina jianfengana Yang et Li,sp.nov. (Fig 3) Length(incl.teg.):♂ 12 8?mm. This species resembles Anatkina incurvata Kuoh,but can be distinguished from the latter by its crown with basal macula bigger leading to cover the oculi;scutellum without distal black spot;forewing with spots smaller and a distinct L shape black stripe at end;male pygofer process smooth and extending posteriorly not to pygofer apex;the shape of subgenital plate,aedeagus and style also obviously different. Holotype♂,Hainan Province:Jianfengling,1997-05-15,coll.WANG Lian Min. The specific name refers to the type locality. 4 Anatkina assamensis (Distant),1880(Fig 4) Tettigonia assamensis Distant,1880:203 Tettigoniella assamensis (Distant):Distant,1908:207 Bothrogonia assamensis (Distant):Metcalf,1965:234 Anatkina assamensis (Distant):Young,1986:46 New record to China. Materials examined:3♂♂,2♀♀,Yunnan Province:Pianma area,2000-08-16,coll.LI Zi Zhong,YANG Mao Fa and CHEN Xiang Sheng. Distribution:India (Assam);China (Yunnan).
