Zeugomutilla saepes ( Chen, 1957)

(Figs 1, 3, 6, 7, 20, 22, 24, 36)

Pristomutilla saepes Chen, 1957: 158 , ♀ (holotype: ♀, China, Fujian, "Shaowu, Kuhsienchieh, 1944, (TM)"). Mutilla saepes: Nonveiller 1995: 32 , 115, ♀ (Fujian).

Zeugomutilla saepes: Lelej 1992: 285 , figs 2, 4, 6, ♀ (Fujian, Guangdong) ; 2005: 38, ♀ (Fujian, Guangdong) .

Diagnosis. Female. Body length 9.0– 9.6 mm. Metasomal tergum 2 in basal half with two small spots of golden setae disposed transversely, distance between equal diameter of spot. Metasomal tergum 5 wholly and tergum 6 basally with black setae. Male. Unknown, possibly Zeugomutilla pycnopyga Chen, 1957 is the opposite sex of Z. saepes (see Lelej 1992: 284).

Material examined. Other material. Cambodia: Siem Reap, Phnom Bakheng , IX.2006 (Daniel R. Jump), 2♀ [ RBINS] ; China: Guangdong, Guangzhou , 9.vi.1990 (A. Lelej), 1♀ [ IBSS] ; Dinghushan National Nature Reserve , 11–12.viii.2005, (Liqiong Weng & Zaifu Xu),1 $, 2015000383 [ SCAU] ; Thailand: Chaiyaphum, Pa Hin Ngam NP, dry dipterocarp, 15o38.099”N 101o23.921’E, 698 m, 24–30.viii.2006 (Katae Sa-nog & Buakaw Adnafai), Malaise trap, T451, 1♀ [ QSBG] GoogleMaps .

Distribution. Cambodia (new record) (Siem Reap), China (Fujian, Guangdong), Thailand (new record) (Chaiyaphum).

Remarks. The holotype of Zeugomutilla saepes has been collected by Prof. Tsing-Chao Maa in Fujian [former Fukien], Shaowu, Ku Hsien Kai and paratype in Chungan [Wuyishan], "Bohea Hills", Fujian. We hope that eventually the problem concerning the sex combination of two Zeugomutilla species from China will be solved after study of additional material. The specimens from Cambodia (Fig. 36) have the second metasomal tergum with larger setal spots and may eventually be associated with Z. angkorensis Williams , sp. nov., which has also been collected in Siem Reap Province of Cambodia.
