8. Batriscenaulax sp. 2 * ** ( Fig. 3I View Fig , 4F View Fig )

Specimens examined. 2 males, 7–8 TF .

Remarks. The genus Batrisceneulax is characterized by the male sexual characters, 1) the abdominal segment IV with a large excavation and setiferous patches in posterodorsal part, 2) the penicillate fore tibia near apex, and 3) the male genitalia with small basal capsule and large, elongate dorsal apophysis.

An undescribed species of this genus was recorded from Tanintharyi, southern Myanmar. This species from Yezin is different from the species from Tanintharyi in having the smooth dorsal surface of the pronotum and elytra without coarse punctures shown in the latter species .
