  • and Buangina Otte et Alexander, 1983), including 101 species and subspecies (Cigliano et al., 2017). The subgenus Velarifictorus is the largest in the genus Velarifictorus, and mostly distributed in Australia, Africa and Asia (Cigliano et al., 2017). In Asia, six species of this subgenus are recorded from Japan (Ichikawa et al., 2000; Ichikawa et al., 2006), thirteen species from India (Chopard, 1969; Vasanth, 1993), nine species from Vietnam (Kim &
  • Hong, 2014), and also three species from Korea (Storozhenko et al., 2015). There are eleven species and subspecies of the subgenus Velarifictorus distributed in China (Yin & Liu, 1995;
