INTRODUCTION
A total of 90 species belonging to 40 genera are dealt with in this paper of which
40 are from China, 32 from Thailand, 28 from Vietnam, 17 from Laos, 4 from Hong
Kong, 3 from India and 1 from Cambodia. Out of these altogether 16 species are
described as new to science. Besides Oresiobia chinensis Steinmann is treated as synonym
under Anechura externa Bey-Bienko, comb. nov. and Eudohrnia hrisuta Zhang, Ma &
Chen, 1992 under Eudohrnia zeae (Liu, 1946).
A table giving countrywise distribution of various species is provided. Types of all
the species described as new are deposited in the collections of the Bishop P. Museum,
Honolulu Hawaii, U.S.A.
The author is thankful to the Director, Zoological Survey of India. Calcutta for
providing necessary facilities and to the Curator, Bishop P. Museum, Honolulu, Hawaii
for placing at my disposal these interesting specimens for study.
