Description

Oedignatha dian Lu & Li, 2023

Oedignatha dian Lu et al., 2023: 202, figs 3A–F, 4A–B, 5A–C, 6A–C (♂ ♀).

Koppe ninger Chu et al., 2023b: 221, figs 1A–B, 2A–C (♀). Syn. nov..

Type material. Holotype: ♂, CHINA: Yunnan Province: Xishuangbanna, Mengla County, Menglun Town (21.9129°N, 101.2674°E, 608 m a.s.l.), 1–15.VII.2007, leg. G. Zheng.

Paratypes: 1♂, same data as holotype, but 21.8971°N, 101.2845°E, 613 m a.s.l., 16–31.Ⅴ.2007; 1♀, same data as holotype, but 21.9238°N, 101.2740°E, 598 m a.s.l., 1–9.Ⅹ.2006; 1♀, same data as holotype, but 21.9259°N, 101.2821°E, 561 m a.s.l., 16–31.VII.2007. Not examined.

Diagnosis and description. See Lu et al. (2023).

Remarks. Based on the descriptions and accompanying figures of Koppe ninger Chu & Li, 2023 (Chu et al. 2023b: figs 1–2) and Oedignatha dian (Lu et al. 2023: figs 3–4), it is evident that the former and the latter refer to the same species. Therefore, we consider K. ninger to be a junior synonym of O. dian.

Distribution. China (Yunnan).
