Mocrima bifida sp. nov. (fig. 1)
Length of body 6.5mm. General colour whitish yellow. Antennae brown, with the basal 3 segments yellowish. Scutellum, the base of elytra near the humeral angle, external margins of epipleura and the basal 1/3 of inner margins, mesopleuron, metasternite, tibia and tarsi blackish brown to black.
Head with fine punctures on vertex; beneath the upper edge of frental concavity with a median process, the dorsal surface with a middle longitudinal depressed, and the tip with long pale hairs. Two ridges divided the concavity into three portions. Clypeus trianglar and deeply excavated. Antennae exceed the middle of elytra. Elytra with sparsely pale hairs and close punctures on the surface. Anterior legs with the first tarsa flat and concave on ventral surface.
Holotype , Songpan County (32.6°N, 103.6°E), Sichuan Province, 4. VII. 1990, by Liu Ju-peng.
This new species is resemble to M. aurantiaca (Lab.), but differs from it by the hairs of elytra.
