Abstract

Seven new Psechrus species are described from South East Asia: P. arietinus sp. nov. (♂♀, Vietnam), P. insulanus sp. nov. (♂, Thailand), P. ampullaceus sp. nov. (♂♀, Vietnam), P. om i s t e s sp. nov. (♂, Indonesia, Sumatra), P. quasillus sp. nov. (♂♀, Malaysia, Borneo), P. huberi sp. nov. (♀, Philippines), and P. wade sp. nov. (♂, Philippines). For the following species, new records are listed and intraspecific variation is discussed and illustrated: P. libelti Kulczyński, 1908, P. norops Bayer, 2012, P. r an i Wang & Yin, 2001, P. khammouan Jäger, 2007, P. luangprabang Jäger, 2007, P. j a e g er i Bayer, 2012, P. obtectus Bayer, 2012, P. kenting Yoshida, 2009 and P. crepido Bayer, 2012, and Fecenia protensa Thorell, 1891. The latter species is recorded from Vietnam for the first time. P. norops, P. libelti and an unidentified Psechrus species from Baluno, Mindanao are for the first time characterised and illustrated by their pre-epigynes and pre-vulvae.
