Description
4. Sceliphron javanum chinenense van Breugel, 1968
Sceliphron javanum chinense van Breugel in van der Vecht & van Breugel 1968: 244, ♀, ♂. Holotype: ♀, China: Island of Hainan: Fan Heang (MCZ).
Diagnosis. Mesoscutum more or less distinctly striate, but striae not sharply defined; scutellum longitudinally striate; second submarginal cell anteriorly as a rule narrower than third; hind tibia black; hind femur yellow, with usually ill defined fuscous mark at apex above; at least apical third of fore and mid femora yellow to yellowish brown; fore and mid tibiae orange yellow.
According to van der Vecht & van Breugel (1968: 244), S. javanum chinense van Breugel is very similar to S. javanum javanum (Lepeletier) and S. javanum petiolare Kohl, but differs mainly by leg colour.
Note. van der Vecht & van Breugel (1968) tentatively placed specimens from Sikkim, West Bengal, Assam (presently Meghalaya) under S. javanum chinenense van Breugel as sufficient materials from these areas were not available for them. For this reason this subspecies has been excluded from the present study.
Distribution. India: Meghalaya, Sikkim (?), West Bengal. Elsewhere: China; Laos; Vietnam (van der Vecht & van Breugel 1968; Pulawski 2021).
