Remarks.
This subgenus consists of 19 species from Indochina, Malay Peninsula, Java, Borneo,
Philippines
and Sulawesi. It can be distinguished from the nominotypical subgenus by the absence of metanotal gland in males, the apical part of the ectophallic fold [rachis] in the male genitalia widened and with comparatively smaller lobes (including a virga-like or finger-like median process), and the ectoparameres (if they are developed) probably originated from the lateral lobes of the pseudepiphallus [epiphallus] but not from the lateral lobes of the ectophallic fold [rachis] (
Gorochov & Tan, 2014
).
