Morphological traits are generally indicative of specific taxa, and particularly function as keys in taxonomy and species delimitation. In this study, a non-biting midge species with an -like superior volsella makes it hard to accurately determined based on its morphological characteristics. Molecular genes of two ribosomal genes and three protein-encoding genes were compiled to construct a related genera phylogeny and to address the taxonomic issues. Phylogenetic inference clearly supports the undetermined species as belonging to . Therefore, a new species classified in the genus is described and figured as an adult male from Oriental China. The species could be easily distinguished from other species in having an -like superior volsella and a triangular tergite IX.
形态特征通常指示特定的分类单元，尤其在分类学和物种界定中起着关键作用。在本研究中，一种具有类似[具体形态]的上附器的摇蚊物种，仅基于其形态特征难以准确鉴定。编译了两个核糖体基因和三个蛋白质编码基因的分子基因，以构建相关属的系统发育关系并解决分类学问题。系统发育推断明确支持该未确定物种属于[具体属]。因此，描述并图示了一个分类于[属名]属的新物种，为来自中国东部的成年雄性。该物种具有类似[具体形态]的上附器和三角形的第九腹节背板，可轻易与其他物种区分开来。
