Comments.

Known from the holotype female, two female paratypes, and a male paratype collectively from locations in Fujian, Guangxi, and Yunnan. The original description notes some variation in colour with TT 1 and 2 sometimes being largely yellow and T 5 sometimes largely black but does not specify whether or not these variants reflect sexual dimorphism.
