Remarks
:
Anomala chloropus
seems to be a very widespread species in Southeast Asia with a distribution range extending from northeastern
India
(
CHANDRA & GUPTA 2012
) to southern
Vietnam
, from which the subspecies
codorensis
PROKOFIEV, 1915 was described (Con Dao Island). Here, we report the nominate subspecies from
Laos
,
Thailand
and
Vietnam
for the first time. Whether or not the very similar species
A
.
dentifera
LIN, 2002
from southeastern
China
is really a different taxon is not yet clear and requires additional study.
