(Figs. 19 & 20)

Puthz, 1981a: 16 (subgenus Parastenus; Type locality: Jünnan:Siamonyang, 25 km N Ch’e-li, 850 m); Herman, 2001a: 2386; Smetana, 2004: 546 (Palaearctic catalog); Puthz 2013a: 1401; Schülke & Smetana, 2015: 840 (Palaearctic catalog).

Material examined: China: Yunnan: Lushui County, Xiaohe Country, Huiliucun, 3 males, 1 female, 2083 m, 2.V.2015. Mei-Ying Lin leg. (IZ-CAS).

Remarks: We found this species in Guangxi; this species has not the elytral spot and thus can be easily distinguished from S. zhangyejunianus Lv et Zhou, sp. nov. It can be easily distinguished from S. nabanhensis Lv et Zhou, sp. nov. by body more slender, elytra smaller and aedeagal median lobe (Figs. 19A & 20A) more slender, apical sclerotized area with an apical cuspidate projection.

Distribution: China (Yunnan), Laos.
