Remarks. Apophygone simpulum was originally described from northern and northeastern Thailand as the type species of a new genus, Apophygone Tanasevitch, 2014 ( Tanasevitch 2014b) . Very soon after that, this genus name was synonymized with Enguterothrix Denis, 1962 , known from the Afrotropical Region (Democratic Republic of the Congo), see Tanasevitch (2016). The species is new to the faunas of Malaysia and Indonesia.

Distribution. Thailand ( Tanasevitch 2014b), East Malaysia and Indonesia.
