Abstract

The genus Nadezhdiella Plavilstshikov, 1931 is preliminarily reviewed and a new species, N. hekaijii Lin, He & Li, sp. nov. from Mêdog County, Xizang, China, is described. Illustrations of the habitus and genitalia of N. hekaijii and its two congeners, N. cantori (Hope, 1842) and N. fulvopubens (Pic, 1933), are provided. Additionally, new locality records for N. cantori and a key to the six known species of the genus are included.
