title: Chinius junlianensis Leng 1987 (Diptera: Psychodidae): new morphological data.
abstract: For the first time, dissection and microscopical examination of several specimens of Chinius junlianensis Leng 1987 have revealed the antennal and palpal formulae of both males and females of this species and the true morphology of the spermathecae in the females. The latter have smooth elongated reservoirs and a very long common duct, which matches the long genital filaments of the males. There are no setae on the mesanepisternum, a feature shared with another 'primitive' genus, Warileya, and with Sergentomyia.
