Grootaert [ 1 female , CNCI ] . Diagnosis FEMALE. See original description. MALE. Unknown. This species is close to the group of similar looking species of Palaeoneura from Queensland , Australia , particularly P. darwini , which also has a dark subapical spot on the forewing and a dark brown body, and P. silvifilia , which has a similar forewing and arrangement of setae on and near the marginal vein, but lacks the subapical dark spot and has a yellow body. Palaeoneura unimaculata cannot belong to Acmopolynema because it lacks the "V"-shaped propodeal carinae and the petiole is attached to the gastral tergum (as clearly seen in the dry-mounted specimen from Kashmir, India ). Distribution India , Japan [new record, see comments below], and Papua New Guinea [new record]. Comments The specimen from Japan is only tentatively identified as P. unimaculata as it has a longer antenna and a few other, minor differences from the Indian specimens. A male specimen in CNCI (collection data: Indonesia , Ambon Island , 3°7'S , 128°2'E , 14–17.iii.1994 , R.G. Holmberg) possibly also belongs to P. unimaculata though its forewing lacks a dark spot.
