Subgenus Thailandia Bílý, 1990

Type species: Thailandia paradoxa Bílý, 1990; original designation .

Medium-sized (4.5–7.5 mm), usually bicolorous species: golden green or blue-green with violet pronotal and elytral pattern (Fig. 18), rarely entirely golden green; frons convex or strongly convex, vertex very wide (2.5–3.5 times as wide as width of eye); eyes large, projecting beyond outline of head which is much wider than anterior pronotal margin (Fig. 18); pronotum more or less regularly convex with weak lateroposterior depressions, sculpture homogeneous consisting of oval or polygonal, sometimes transversely widened, cells without central grains (Fig. 51); antennae short usually reaching midlength of lateral, pronotal margins when laid alongside, or shorter; anal ventrite of female apically notched with fine, lateral serrations; aedeagus spindle-shaped or weakly spatulate, parameres often with small, lateral, preapical spine (Fig. 75); median lobe without lateral serrations. Very well defined subgenus due to the conspiciously wide head, convex frons, extremely wide vertex and typical coloration. Originally described as an independent genus (Bílý, 1 990), later downgraded to a subgenus (Bílý, 2005).
