Male genitalia of Mistshenkoana hulu in dorsal (A), ventral (B) and lateral (C) views. Scale bar: 1 mm. Type locality. PENINSULAR MALAYSIA , Perak , Hulu, Belum Distribution. Malay Peninsula (Perak, SINGAPORE [new locality]) Remarks. I identified the specimens from Singapore as Mistshenkoana hulu Gorochov, 2007 based on the posterolateral epiphallic lobes being more widely spaced apart and with few or no setae along the inner margin, compared to Mistshenkoana pangrango Gorochov, 2007 from Java, the colouration of pronotum, FW veins and cross-veins. At least parts of the ectoparameres of the specimens from Singapore appear to share closer similarities with M. pangrango . Along with Mistshenkoana tembelingi Gorochov, 2007 from Pahang, these species may represent a species complex thus requiring further studies.
