Anisandrus apicalis (Blandford, 1894)
Notes.
Seven specimens were recorded from Chiang Mai province under this name by
Beaver et al. (2014)
. Three of these specimens are now included in the closely similar species,
A. montanus
sp. nov. (see above). The other four specimens belong to
A. cristatus
, which was considered a synonym of
A. apicalis
at the time of Beaver et al.'s publication. It was reinstated as a distinct species by
Smith et al. (2020)
. We know of no specimens of
A. apicalis
from Thailand, and the species must be removed from the faunal list.
