MATERIAL EXAMINED. Vietnam: Quang Nam Prov., Nam Gian distr., Song Than

Natn. Park, h= 1050 m, 15 o 33’48’’N 107 o 23’22’’E, 23.IV–11. V GoogleMaps .2019, 2♂, 5♀, leg. D. Fedorenko ( SIEE, MSPU) .

NOTES. Up to now, this species has been found to occur in five Vietnamese regions:

Northeast (Cao Bang, Lang Son, Bac Giang, Phu Tho provinces), Northwest (Hoa Binh province), Red River Delta (Vinh Phuc province), North Central Coast (Thua Thien-Hue province) and Central Highlands (Kon Tum and Lam Dong provinces) (Wiesner et al.,

2017). In the South Central Coast region (Quang Nam province), H. pulchella is being recorded for the first time. However, since H. pulchella occurs in the neighboring provinces

Thua Thien-Hue and Kon Tum, this record is hardly surprising.
