Description
Acothrura orientalis (Liang, 2000) comb. nov.
Lacusa orientalis Liang, 2000: 289.
Note
The species Lacusa orientalis was described by Liang in 2000. Xing & Chen (2014) reviewed all the species of the genus Lacusa. According to their observations, this species should be removed from the genus Lacusa and placed in the genera Sarebasa Distant, 1909 or Acothrura Melichar, 1915 (Xing & Chen 2014). After comparing habitus and phallic complexes of L. orientalis (Liang 2000: figs 17, 23–27) and Acothrura fucizona Wang, Chou & Yuan, 2000 (Figs 91–101), the very similar brown markings on vertex and thorax, shape of anal tube, pygofer with dorsal margin straight, posterior margin curved and gonostylus with apical margin concave at middle lead us to place L. orientalis in the genus Acothrura Melichar, 1915. The following new combination is accordingly proposed: Acothrura orientalis (Liang, 2000) comb. nov.
