MEGHALAYA SPP.

Other material examined: One female ( ZSI) from Miao, Arunāchal Pradesh, Changlang District, India, 600 m a.s.l., collected 6 March 1990 by D. B. Bastawade (this is the specimen reported by Bastawade in 1992). One male ( MHNG) from Khasi Hills, between Mawsynram and Balat, 16 km from Mawsynram, Meghālaya , India, 1000 m a.s.l., collected 27 October 1978 by C. Besuchet and I. Löbl. One male ( MHNG) from Khasi Hills, above Shillong, North face, Meghālaya , India, 1850–1950 m a.s.l., collected 25 October 1978 by C. Besuchet and I. Löbl. One male ( MHNG, MCZ DNA102051) from Tura trail (25°30′28′′N, 90°13′54′′E), Tura Peak, West Garo Hills District, Meghālaya , India, 650 m a.s.l., collected 14 October 2004 by G. Cuccodoro, C. Carlton, R. Leschen and D. Erne.

This material may well correspond to four new species: the one from Miao known only from a female specimen, and the other three from Meghālaya , known by a single male each. We prefer to postpone the description of these new species until more material becomes available for study.
