摘要
Lepidomystix gen. nov. weigeli sp. nov. is described from the foothills of Himalaya in India and Nepal. The taxon is characterised by striking scales on the dorsal and ventral side, by very short antennae and widely broadened tarsi of all legs (perhaps only in males). The new taxon is assigned to the subfamily Stenochiinae and is compared with the genus Stenochinus Motschulsky, 1860, tribe Cnodalonini. However, it remains doubtful if Lepidomysticus gen. nov. belongs to the same tribe, because characters of the female genitalia (ovipositor, spermatheca) are not available. The species is known for a limited number of specimens, suggesting a peculiar or cryptic lifestyle.
