Remarks.
Hygrogeus ledouxi
based on the single
holotype
was originally described from “Cachemire, Pahalgam, Sheshnag…”. Based on the original description and the shape of the aedeagus (
Figs 2I and 2J
in
Coiffait 1983
),
H. ledouxi
is conspecific with the Himalayan
H. coriaceus
, also known from Kashmir (
Shavrin 2021
,
2024
). Thus,
H. ledouxi
is synonymized with the latter species.
