( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 )

Spilopteron flaviapicus Wang & Huang, 1993 View in CoL . Animals of Longqi Mountain , 8: 736. Holotype: ♀, China: Fujian (IOZAS).

Material examined. 1♂ ( RMNH), Vinh Phuc, Tam Dao NP, 1000 m a.s.l, 19.iv.2001, hand net, R. de Vries leg. ; 1♀ ( IEBR), Cao Bang, Phia Oac - Phia Den NP, 8–18.v.2013, Malaise trap, T.H. Pham leg.

Remarks. Specimens from Vietnam differ from the holotype specimen in having more extensive yellow

markings: entire scutellum, anterior half of first tergite, entire tergites 7–8 and hypopygium are yellow. In contrast, the hind femur is largely black dorsally ( vs reddish yellow in the holotype female). The male specimen from Vietnam has an entirely yellow face and a black propodeum. These are the first records of this species from Vietnam.
