Calcyopa fansipana Sato, 2022 , Tinea 26 (3): 226, figs 1, 2, 23. Type-locality: Mt Fan-si-pan, N. Vietnam.

Type material examined.

Holotype: Vietnam • ♂; N. Vietnam, Cha-pa (Sa Pa), Mt Fan-si-pan , N. Seite; 22°17'N, 103°44'E; 1600 m; 21–23 Apr. 1995; leg. Sinjaev & Sammler, ex coll. A. Schintlmeister; Prim Urwald; NIAES. GoogleMaps

Paratype: Vietnam • 1 ♂; same data as holotype; NIAES GoogleMaps .

Additional material examined.

Vietnam • 5 ♂♂; same locality and elevation as holotype; 01–05 Mar. 1995; ex coll. / leg. Dr. R. Brechlin; ZFMK • 1 ♂; same locality and collector as for preceding; 1520 m; ZFMK .

Diagnosis.

Diagnostic characters are given under the newly described species. The male adult and genitalia are illustrated in Sato (2022), but we depict them here again for comparison with the other two species of difoveata - group. The female is still unknown at present.

Distribution.

Vietnam.

Genetic data.

No data available.

Remarks.

Stüning (2000: 135) already mentioned this species as “ an undescribed species also from Vietnam ”, which was later described as fansipana by Sato (2022: 226). He wrote in the description: “ Third abdominal sternite with setal comb ” and “ Hind tibia with hair-pencil ”. These two characters were mentioned by an unexplainable error (Sato 2023, pers. comm.). Both setal comb and hair-pencil are absent in all species of the genus Calcyopa , which, of course, was known to Sato.
