Lower fronto-orbital setae absent. Lower interfrontal setae shorter than upper interfrontal setae and the distance between each other slightly shorter than that between upper interfrontal setae. First flagellomere dark brown, 0.21 mm long, with an aspect ratio of 2.1:1; arista 0.25 mm long, 1.20 times as long as that of first flagellomere. Palpus dark brown, with short setae apically. Thorax dark brown. Mid and hind legs dark brown, fore leg brown. Fore tibia with 11 small near-dorsal setulae, the uppermost being longer than the rest. Mid femur without sense-organ. Wing length 1.88 mm. Costal index 0.40, costal ratio 1.90:1, costal setulae length 0.10–0.12 mm. Vein Rs with basisetula. Veins brown, except A 1 +CuA 2 whitish gray. Halter dark brown. Abdominal tergites dark brown. Terminalia (Fig. 19D) dark brown, with long setulae. Left surstylus (Figs. 19E, G) palmate, very thin basically and concave on apical edge, with 10–12 long and pointed inner teeth on dorso-apical corner. Right surstylus (Figs. 19F, H) with 8–10 palmate, concave on apical edge, pointed inner teeth on ventro-apical corner and 14–20 similar inner teeth on dorso-apical teeth. Female. Unknown. Specimens examined. 1 ♂ (holotype), Sichuan, Mt. Gongga (3000m), 15-Aug-1992, Min Wang; 1 ♂ (paratype), Sichuan, Mt. Gongga (3000m), 15-Aug-1992, Min Wang. Distribution. China (Sichuan). Remarks. In the keys of Disney (1990) and Michailovskaya (2000) the species will not run out to any species. It is a little similar to C. chayuensis sp. nov., it differs from the latter by the shapes of surstyli, its long setae and larger body size.
