Scelimena discalis View in CoL species group

Composition and distribution. This group is composed of species that usually have the vertex more or less the same width as a compound eye; smooth, undulated, or toothed ventral margins of the hind femora; many pairs of metalateral tubercles, and a few prolateral; usually with tuberculated median carina; and ventrolateral spines directed forwards. This group is similar to the Scelimena producta species group, and one species hiterto assigned to the S. producta species group has been transferred to S. discalis species group, that being S. boettcheri Günther, 1938 from Palawan ( Philippines), a species very similar to the recently described S. gombakensis , which is a member of this group. Now, Scelimena discalis species group counts five species: S. boettcheri Günther, 1938 from Palawan, S. discalis ( Hancock, 1915) from Northeast India and Thailand, S. gombakensis Muhammad, Tan et Skejo, 2018 from peninsular Malaysia, S. kempi ( Hancock, 1915) from Northeast India, S. songkrana Zha et Wen, 2017 from Thailand and PR China (Yunnan).
