Type species. – Oophana bulbulus ( Morelet, 1862) View in CoL .
Remarks. – Richardson’s (1988) keys for Streptaxidae , in which the genus Oophana is distinguished from other genera by having two (sometimes only one) parietal lamellae and three or more other teeth, are followed here. In Peninsular Malaysia, Van Bentham Jutting (1954, 1961a) described seven species of Oophana under the subgenus Haploptychius , which differs from Oophana sensu stricto by having only one parietal lamella present. However, Haploptychius has since been treated as a full genus (see Van Bruggen, 1972; Richardson, 1988). Therefore, it can be said that prior to this report, no representatives of Oophana occured in Peninsular Malaysia.
