Material examined.

Laos • Luang Namtha Province, Luang Namtha ca 43.8 km southwest – Vieng Phou Kha, Phou Lan, right side of the road 100 m ; 20°44.5278'N, 101°11.1011'E; 770 m a. s. l.; 08 Oct. 2019; A. Hunyadi, K. Okubo, J. U. Otani leg., coll. HA GoogleMaps .

Remarks.

Only a single, rather weathered, and partly damaged specimen of Bensonella which is the most similar to B. lakainguta and related species ( B. hooki , B. montawa sp. nov., B. multihami ) could be examined from Laos. Most of the aperture is obstructed by the dirt that could not be cleaned which is why majority of the barriers were invisible. The identity of this species remains unresolved until more specimens are collected.
