Labomimus cucphuong sp. nov., Pselaphodes banphabat sp. nov., Pselaphodes
dalatensis sp. nov., Pselaphodes jendeki sp. nov., Pselaphodes nongfa sp. nov.,
Pselaphodes olexai sp. nov., and Pselaphodes parapectinatus sp. nov. New country
or provincial records are provided for ten known species: Labomimus bannaus Yin
& Li, 2013, Labomimus maolan Zhang, Li & Yin, 2019, Labomimus shii (Yin
& Li, 2012), comb. nov. (transferred from Pselaphodes Westwood, 1870), Linan
fortunatus Yin & Li, 2013, Paralasinus gigas Hlaváč & Nomura, 2001,
Pselaphodes hainanensis Yin & Li, 2013, Pselaphodes incisus Huang, Li &
Yin, 2018, Pselaphodes linae Yin & Li, 2012, Pselaphodes paraculeus Huang,
Li & Yin, 2018, and Taiwanophodes magnus Bekchiev, 2010. An identification
key to the 26 species of the complex that occur in Laos and Vietnam is
provided.
