Porocallus sinensis PACE 2012: 140 .

C o m m e n t: In the original description of P. sinensis , which is based on a single female from " China: Guangxi, Da Ming Shan" ( Map 1 ), PACE (2012) compares the species with P. insignis , but there is no reference whatsoever to other species of the genus. The spermatheca is similar to that of P. ligo ASSING 2006 from Guizhou, but the illustration of the habitus of P. sinensis provided by PACE (2012) suggests that the pronotum is more transverse.
