A new species of the genus Pedesta Hemming, 1934, viz. P. wangi sp. nov., is described as new to science from northwestern Guangxi, southern China. Based upon 455 bp partial COI sequences, a neighbor-joining (NJ) tree including the new species and twelve congeneric species is reconstructed. It shows that P. wangi sp. nov. is a cryptic species of P. xiaoqingae (Huang & Zhan, 2004), and the mean Kimura-2-Parameter distance between them reaches 2.8%. Wing patterns and genitalic structures of the males of the two species are illustrated and compared. In addition, three female samples are associated with P. xiaoqingae male in the NJ tree, and its wing pattern and genitalia are illustrated and described herein for the first time.
1934年描述的Pedesta Hemming属的一个新物种，即新种王启 Pedesta wangi sp. nov.，来自中国南部广西西北部，是科学上新发现的物种。基于455 bp的部分COI序列，重建了一个包含新物种和12个同属物种的邻接法（NJ）树。结果表明，新种王启 Pedesta wangi sp. nov. 是小青 Pedesta xiaoqingae（黄 & 詹，2004）的一个隐存种，它们之间的平均Kimura-2-参数距离达到2.8%。文中对这两个物种雄性的翅脉模式和生殖器结构进行了图示和比较。此外，在NJ树中有三个雌性样本与小青 Pedesta xiaoqingae 的雄性相关联，本文首次对其翅脉模式和生殖器进行了图示和描述。
