Type material examined : Holotype ♂ : “ MALAYSIA : PAHANG , Bukit Fraser ( 1000 m ), Jeriau Waterfalls , 24/ XI/1987 , S. Taiti e L. Bartolozzi / Holotypus Zyras variolatus m., det. R. Pace 1988 / Zyras variolatus sp. n. , det. R. Pace 1988 / “La Specola”, Firenze, 7751 / Zyras montanus (Bernhauer) , det. V. Assing 2017” ( MZUF ) . Additional material examined : see type material of Z. pervariolosus . Comment : The original description of Z. variolatus is based on a unique male from “ Malaysia , Pahang , Jerau Water Falls” ( PACE 2003 ). An examination of the holotype revealed that it is conspecific with Z. montanus , a species previously known only from Borneo. The male recently recorded as Z. variolatus from Kelantan ( ASSING 2017 ) is evidently a specimen at the lower end of the size range of Z. montanus and additionally distinguished from other examined specimens by a dark antennomere X.
