Pictorial key to species of the genus Ropalidia Guerin-Meneville, 1831 (Hymenoptera, Vespidae) from China, with description of one new species Author Tan, Jiang-Li Author Van Achterberg, Kees Author Chen, Xue-Xin text ZooKeys 2014 391 1 35 http://dx.doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.391.6606 journal article http://dx.doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.391.6606 1313-2970-391-1 00BA115D65D44A0C933CC29F56236DEA Ropalidia binghami van der Vecht, 1941 Icaria sumatrae ; Bingham, 1897: 387 (misidentification). Ropalidia binghami van der Vecht, 1941: 113. Type locality: Thailand (Siam). Ropalidia binghami binghami ; van der Vecht 1962 : 8. Ropalidia sumatrae sumatrae ; Lee 1982 : 88, 1985 : 50. Specimens examined. 1 ♀, Luang Prabang, Hat Thoun, Siam, 10. xi.1917, RV De Salvaza (holotype, BMNH) 1♂, Mergui, Tenasserim, May 1890, CT Bingham (allotype, BMNH. "This specimen bears a label in Bingham's handwriting: " Icaria cotonata White ♀"). Remarks. No specimens from China were available, but this species is included in the key because it has been listed for China by Lee (1982 , 1985 ) as Ropalidia (Anthreneida) sumatrae sumatrae (Weber). Considering the description and illustration of Lee (1982 , 1985 ), we agree with Kojima and Carpenter (1997) and Kojima (2006) that it most likely concerns Ropalidia binghami van der Vecht, 1941. Distribution. China (Guangdong); Myanmar; Thailand. ( Kojima and Carpenter 1997 and updated to 2006, Lee 1982 , 1985 ).
