Abstract
Drepanosticta minhanhiana sp. nov. (holotype ♂: 15.26416° N, 121.35115° E; 69 m a.s.l.; deposited at Cavite State University, Philippines) is described from Luzon Island, the Philippines, based on specimens of both sexes. The new species can be distinguished from its congeners by the differential characters of the male prothorax and by the structure of anal appendages. Additional descriptive notes, as well as detailed morphological photographs and illustrations of both the male and female of D. halterata (Brauer, 1868), are also provided.
