Miridiba malaccensis – Matsumoto 2011: 1 , figs 1, 10, 12 (combination). Diagnosis See Moser (1912) and Matsumoto (2011) . Remarks Matsumoto (2011) transferred this species to Miridiba based on several non-type specimens from Malaysia . We were unable to examine type specimens and it is not possible to confirm or disprove the transfer of H. malaccensis to the genus Miridiba ( Matsumoto 2011 ) until the types are studied. Then, we consider the taxonomic status of H. malaccensis as it is currently established ( Matsumoto 2011 ) and, according to figures of the male genitalia ( Matsumoto 2011 : fig. 12), we include this species in the morphotype IV “ Bidentata ”. Distribution Malaysia ( Malacca ).
