Phortica (Ashima) sagittaristula: Chen & Máca, 2012: 507 .

Diagnosis. Setulae just before prescutellar acrostichal setae as short as other acrostichal setulae (ch.15-0); anterior, sclerotized postgonite on right lateral lobe of aedeagal sheath bifurcated into subequal, long projections (“ Fig. 2C ” in Chen et al. 2005a).

Supplementary description (not repeating characters common to P. foliisetoides). Supracervical setae approximately 9. Cibarial, medial sensilla 7–8 per side; posterior sensilla approximately 6 per side.

Specimens examined. Malaysia: 1♂, Ulu Gombak, Selangor, 8.xii.2013, M.J. Toda leg. (SEHU) . Indonesia: 1♂, Bogor, West Java, 13–18.xi.2009, M.J. Toda leg. (SEHU) .

Distribution. China (Guangxi, Yunnan), Peninsular Malaysia *, Java*.

Remarks. This species is closely related to the foregoing species, P. foliisetoides, in the molecular phylogeny reconstructed by Cao et al. (2011), but can be distinguished from it by the diagnostic characters.
