Remarks.
The species is rather unique with male pores in xx. The populations found in Cambodia and Con Lon Isl. (Vietnam) have genital markings on xix (Do 1994), and the population found in Dak Lak has an additional genital marking on xxi (
Huynh 2005a
). The material was re-checked to confirm the occurrence of the species in Vietnam.
