MATERIAL EXAMINED. Vietnam: Quang Nam Prov., Nam Gian distr., Song Than

Natn. Park, h= 1050 m, 15 o 33’48’’N 107 o 23’22’’E, 23.IV–11. V GoogleMaps .2019, 2♂, 5♀, leg. D. Fedorenko ( SIEE, MSPU) .

NOTES. Up to now, this species has been found to occur in five Vietnamese regions:

Northeast ( Cao Bang, Lang Son, Bac Giang, Phu Tho provinces), Northwest ( Hoa Binh province), Red River Delta ( Vinh Phuc province), North Central Coast ( Thua Thien-Hue province) and Central Highlands ( Kon Tum and Lam Dong provinces) (Wiesner et al.,

2017). In the South Central Coast region ( Quang Nam province), H. pulchella is being recorded for the first time. However, since H. pulchella occurs in the neighboring provinces

Thua Thien-Hue and Kon Tum, this record is hardly surprising.
