Remarks

Aetheomorpha bacboensis Medvedev, 1992 is close to A. cochinchinensis Lefèvre, 1889, which is distributed in South Vietnam and Myanmar; but the former can be well distinguished by the fan-shaped aedeagal apex, obviously wider than long. Moreover, the spermathecal duct is very long, closely coiled into a ball. Ventral rectal sclerites are obviously kneeing (Figure 7H).
