The male of Apatania mongolica is redescribed, and the description of the previously undiagnosed female of this species is provided with illustrations. Based on the features of our material, the male of A. mongolica is easily distinguishable from those of other species of the genus by having a very broad median process of segment X curved ventrad and C-shaped. The female differs from those of other Apatania species by having the hind wing discoidal cell closed, the apex of segment IX rectangular in lateral view, and the supragenital plate well-developed and thick in lateral view.
