Type material examined. HOLOTYPE: 1 ♀, ‘Collect. / Duvivier [w, p] // Platyxantha / rubripennis / Duviv / Borneo [w, h] // TYPE [p] ♂ [pink, p] // TYPE [w, p] // cf.Ann. Soc. Ent./ Belg., [p] C.R. XXVIII / p. 319 [w, h] //A.Duvivier det.[p] / P.( Platyxantha ) / rubripennis / Duv.[w, h]’ ( ISNB).

Comments. DUVIVIER (1884) described this species based on one female from Borneo. Subsequent authors followed its classification in Platyxantha ( WILCOX 1973, KIMOTO 1990). REID (1999) transferred it to Taumacera . Based on the general appearence of the holotype and presence of a metafemoral spine, I transfer it to Hoplosaenidea .
