Hoplosaenidea basalis ( Duvivier, 1884) , comb. nov.

Platyxantha basalis Duvivier, 1884 : cccxviii (original description)

Type material examined. HOLOTYPE: 1 ♀, ‘Collect. / Duvivier [w, p] // Platyxantha / basalis / Duviv. / Manille [w, h] // TYPE [w, p] // TYPE [pink, p] // cf.Ann.Soc.Ent./ Belg.,[p] C.R.XXVIII / 1884,p.318-319 [w, h] // V.

Comments. DUVIVIER (1884) described this species based on one female from Manilla. 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 .
