Megapomponia pendleburyi ( Boulard, 2001 b)

Pomponia adusta, Wood, 1874: 732 , Pl. XVIII, Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 , Siam.

Pomponia adusta, Moulton, 1923: 104 –108, 167, Siam; penisular Siam.

Pomponia adusta, Boulard, 2005 e: 96 –97, Siam; Siamese Malaysia

Pomponia pendleburyi, Boulard, 2001 b: 79 , 86–93, 95– 101, vicinity of Ranong, isthmus of Kra.

Megapomponia pendleburyi, Boulard, 2005 e: 95 , 99, 102, 105, 107, Ranong, south Thailand; isthmus of Kra; forest of Tungka, isthmus of Kra, Province of Ranong, south Thailand.

Megapomponia pendleburyi, Boulard, 2005 l: 341, 347, Ranong Province, south Thailand; Kra Isthmus, south Thailand.

Taxonomy: Boulard (2005 e) transferred this species to Megapomponia when the genus was described.

Notes: The specimens of P. adusta ( Walker, 1850) from the Malay Peninsula and possibly Java and Sumatra (Metcalf, 1963 b) probably represent records of M. pendleburyi ( Boulard, 2005 e).

Material Examined: PSUC – South Thailand.

Distribution: The specimens of P. adusta ( Walker, 1850) from the Malay Peninsula and possibly Java and Sumatra (Metcalf, 1963 b) probably represent records of M. pendleburyi ( Boulard, 2005 e).
