Abstract

A new species, Ceratophysella gracilimucronata sp. nov. from Nan Ling Mountains (Guangdong Province, China), is described. It resembles C. ainu (Yosii, 1972), C. glancei Hammer, 1953 and C. falcifer Cassagnau, 1959 due to the B type chaeotataxy and short and slender mucro. Mitochondrial COI gene sequence of C. gracilimucronata sp. nov. is provided. A key to species of the C. armata group of the Sino–Japanese Region is given.
