Lasiochilus seychellensis Distant, 1913

(Seychelles Is.)

Given that Lasiochilus gardinieri and L. sadeni, described in the same paper really belong to two groups as distinct as Oriini and Cardiastethini, is difficult to consider the correct taxonomic position of these three species based solely on the original description. Descriptions are brief and even with the excellent drawings of the habitus submitted, they show a so diverse in external aspect that without access to reference material, correctly assigning of these species to a tribe or even subfamily is not possible. It is very interesting, however, that, if they are actually Lasiochilinae, the presence of punctures on the pronotum but not on the hemelytra would be a character unique to these species.
