); area surrounding collar without follicle cell impressions (

Comments.
One of us (IS) examined a single female in the collection of the Institute of Zoology, Academia Sinica,
Beijing
and obtained the egg sample. Unfortunately notes and sketches made for this specimen were lost during travel. The egg of this species differs from those of
C. drukpa
,
C. semibrachyptera
and
C. sabulosa
(described above). Additional material is needed in order to determine the identity of this species.
