Paraborboropactus oblatus Tang and Li, 2010a: 53, figs 40A–C, 41A–B. New synonymy.

Type material: Syntype of Angaeus lenticulosus : female from VIETNAM: Annam: Phuc-Son, H.Fruhstorfer, no more data given (MNHN 22125/1573), examined, Figs 1 View FIGURE 1 B–E. Holotype of Paraborboropactus oblatus : female from CHINA: Hainan: Wuzhishan Mountains, Shuiman Township, riverside ( N18º53.024', E109º39.804', alt. 638 m), 11 April 2009, G. Tang (IZCAS, not examined).

Synonymy. The female holotype Paraborboropactus oblatus is well illustrated and is here compared with the female syntype of Angaeus lenticulosus . I can find no characters that would suggest that the specimens from China illustrated by Tang and Li (2010a) constitute a species different from A. lenticulosus .

Diagnosis. Females of A. lenticulosus can be distinguished from other species of Angaeus by the presence of H, EC and an EF that considerably widens over the copulatory openings ( Fig 1 View FIGURE 1 C). Males remain unknown.

Description. This species is well described by Tang & Li (2010a).

Distribution. China, Vietnam.
