Material examined: Thailand: 1 ♀, Nan province, Doi Phu Kha National Park , 1700 m, 6.X.1991, leg. Schwendinger ( MHNG) .
The above female most likely represents an undescribed species distinguished from all other congeners known from Thailand not only by the completely different spermatheca, but also by the completely different sculpture of the pronotum (anterior fourth glossy, without pronounced microsculpture) and the chaetotaxy of the pronotum (anteriorly with an oblique row of three erect setae with granulose insertions on either side). Despite these conspicuous characters, the species remains unnamed for want of males. Doi Phu Kha National Park is situated in the extreme northeast of Thailand, not far from the border with Laos.
