Comment
: A re-examination of the type material of
T. bicolor
and
T. chinensis
revealed that both names refer to the same species; hence the synonymy proposed above. The aedeagi of the
lectotype
of
T. bicolor
and of the
holotype
of
T. chinensis
are identical (see
ASSING 2015d
: figures 31–32 and
PACE 2012a
: figures 20–21). The species is currently known from three localities in
Burma
, North
Vietnam
, and
China
(border region between
Shaanxi
,
Chongqing
, and
Hubei
).
