Remarks.
Male genitalia of
Thailand
and Chinese specimens are showing two kinds of
types
for processes on the ventral edge of left valva: upper process is almost two times shorter than lower one (
Fang 2000: 351
, fig. 245; present paper fig. 5b) and 0.5 time shorter or almost same length with lower one (
Dubatolov 2006: 213
, fig. 1; pres- ent paper fig. 5a).
