It differs from the all known species of the genus in its color pattern. It is very similar to the Korean species, H. flavonigra Szeptycki, 1973 in many aspects; however, it is separable from the latter by the setae on labrum, labium and dental base and the chaetotaxy on Abd. III.展开更多

Tianzi, Zhangjiazai, Hunan Province, China. The species is similar to H. latifolia Chen & Li, 1998 (in press) in having leaflike setae on the mentum, but differs from the latter by the presence of more setae on head, coxae, Th.III, Abd.I and Abd.IV, especially Abd.IV with more than 20 macrochaetae present on each side of both anterior and posterior parts.展开更多

Of the 57 species of the genus Homidia known worldwide, most are distributed in Asia （54 species） with China （32 species including 23 native species） having the most species in this genus. The only region outside Asia with a significant fauna is United States including Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana and Hawaii （6 species）. The authors propose a theory for the origin and diffusion of members of this genus.展开更多
