          Abstract

          Twenty species of Libnotes ( Laosa) Edwards, 1926 are known worldwide and three are known from China so far. Here, two species of Laosa are added to the Chinese fauna, of which L. ( L.) baiyunensis sp. nov. is described and illustrated as new to science, and L. ( L.) fuscinervis Brunetti, 1912 is newly recorded from China. Morphologically, the new species is most similar to L. ( L.) charmosyne (Alexander, 1958) but can be distinguished by the pleura of the thorax, the relative position of the additional cross veins in cell r 3 and r 5, and the details of the male genitalia. A key to the world species of Laosa is presented.

          Homology of the gonostylus parts in crane flies, with emphasis on the families Tipulidae and Limoniidae (Diptera, Tipulomorpha)

          The study of the morphology of the gonostylus – a structure of major importance for the taxonomy and systematics of crane flies – has shown that the terminology currently applied to the branches of this organ in Tipulomorpha and its implied primary homology hypothesis are inconsistent in the different families. In this paper, such inconsistencies are discussed, some basic criteria for the proper recognition of the homologous parts are given, and a revised nomenclatural system is proposed. The terms “clasper of gonostylus” and “lobe of gonostylus” are proposed for the gonostylar branches on the basis of the known functions of these structures.
