The specimens that we have examined closely match the original description provided by Andersen (1983) . Pseudovelia buccula can be distinguished by its posteriorly produced buccula, long hairs on the ventral part of the middle femur ( Fig. 23 ), and relatively long and curved hind tarsal segment I ( Fig. 29 ). The depression of abdominal segment VIII of P. buccula is nearly rectangular, with four small tufts of setae along its margin ( Figs. 35 , 41 , 47 , 53 ). The hind margin of the pygophore ( Fig. 59 ) bears dense, short, brown setae. This is a new record for China . Distribution. China ( Yunnan ), Thailand ( Fig. 65 ).
