Rugilus (Rugilus) sp. 1

M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d: China: 1♀, Guizhou, Fanjing Shan, 27°54'N, 108°42'E, 1800-2000 m, pitfall, 5.-11.VI.2014, leg. Reuter (cAss).

C o m m e n t: The external characters (relatively large size, long elytra, each with a yellowish postero-lateral spot) suggest that this probably undescribed species is allied to some species recorded from the Himalaya (R. morvani (ROUGEMONT, 1987), R. smetanai ROUGEMONT, 1998 ).
