title: Taxonomy ofMacromotettixoideswith the description of a new species (Tetrigidae, Metrodorinae).
abstract: Descriptions of the flying organs and generic characteristics of the genusMacromotettixoidesZheng, Wei & Jiang are currently imprecise.Macromotettixoidesis reviewed and compared with allied genera. A re-description is undertaken and a determination key is provided toMacromotettixoides.Macromotettixoides parvulaZha & Wen,sp. n.from the Guizhou Karst Region, China, is described and illustrated with photographs. Observations on the ecology and habits of the new species are recorded. Four current species ofHyboellaHancock are transferred toMacromotettixoides. Variations of the flying organs and tegminal sinus in the Tetrigidae are discussed, which will help to describe them accurately.
