Current status.
Valid species.
Remarks.
Gressitt (1953a)
mentioned in the original description ‘Ta-Chu-Lan’ as the
type
locality while on the label is ‘Ta-Chu-Fung’ but both actually refer to the same place, known as Dazhulan. He also stated that the
paratype
is deposited in CAS, however, the specimen is actually housed in LMNH.
Agonita picea
is very distinct as it is the only Chinese species with three regular rows of punctures between 1
st and
2nd elytral costa.
