A new genus Sinocaryanda gen. nov. is proposed for Sinocaryanda macrocercusa sp. nov. from Yunnan, China. The new genus is an aberrant member of the Oxyinae and resembles Caryanda Stål, 1878, and Nepalocaryanda Ingrisch, 1990. It differs from the latter two by the following features in male: terminalia dorsally broad; 10th tergite broadly interrupted in midline with widened, rounded, medial margins; cerci reaching to or beyond apex of subgenital plate; epiphallus not divided in middle, and aberrant connecting mode of anchorae with bridge.
