Periaeschna zhangzhouensis spec. nov. from Fujian, China (Anisoptera: Aeshnidae)

The new sp. is described, illustrated and compared with the congeners (holotype d, China, Fujian, Huaan co., 3-VIII-2004; deposited at Zhangzhou Education College, China). It is similar to P. flinti Asahina, from which it is distinguished by longer inferior appendages, an obtusely tipped dentigerous plate and by different colour patterns of the synthorax and abdomen.
