Souvanna signata , dorsal habitus A male from Yunnan , China B male from Trat , Thailand C male from Thai Nguyen , Vietnam D female from Thừa Thien Huế, Vietnam . Comments. Having compared the types of M. signata (Fig. 1A, B ), A. quadristigma (Fig. 1D-F, H-J ), S. phoumai (Fig. 1L [REMOVED HYPERLINK FIELD]) and M. coomani (Fig. 1M, N ), we found that the above four species are identical; thus, we treat A. quadristigma , S. phoumai and M. coomani as junior synonyms of M. signata . Athylia and Souvanna belong to the tribe Apomecynini , while Mispila belongs to the tribe Pteropliini . According to the key to tribes of Lamiinae and the key to genera of Apomecynini ( Rondon and Breuning 1970 ), the difference between Apomecynini and Pteropliini is that the middle tibiae have an outer groove in front of the apex in Apomecynini and the middle tibiae have no outer groove in front of the apex in Pteropliini . The difference between Athylia and Souvanna is that the eyes are deeply emarginated in Souvanna and subdivided in Athylia . Furthermore, according to Breuning (1964b) and our examined materials, the 3rd antennal joint is longer than the 4th in Athylia , while the 3rd antennal joint is shorter than the 4th in Souvanna . To confirm these differences, we also have examined material of Athylia avara Pascoe, 1864 from the Ternate Island (Indonesia), the type species of Athylia . After our examination of these materials, we can confirm that this species belongs to the tribe Apomecynini , and, according to the mentioned features, it belongs to the monotypical genus Souvanna . In the description of Alidus signatus , Pic (1926) mentioned "Long. 7-9 mill", which indicates that Pic examined at least two specimens; thus, we designate syntype examined by us (Fig. 1A, B ) as the lectotype following the recommendations of ICZN (1999; Art. 74.7). Distribution. China (Hainan, Yunnan), Laos (Vientiane), Thailand (Trat), Vietnam (Hoa-Binh, Thai Nguyen , Thừa Thien Huế).
