Abstract

A new species of the genus Mongolotettix Rehn, 1928 from Henan, China is described in this paper. The new species Mongolotettix. jigongshanensis sp. nov. is allied to M. hubeiensis Zheng et al, 2017, but differs from latter by vertical diameter of eye 2.0 times horizontal diameter in male, cubital vein of tegmen reaching the apex in male, epiphallus with distinct projection on both inner sides, vertical diameter of eye 1.5 times the horizontal diameter and length of subocular furrow in female and tegmina of female reaching the middle of 2nd abdominal tergite. Type specimens are deposited in the Shanghai Entomological Museum, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai, 200032, China.
