Remarks. In both coloration and structure, this species is similar to K. semiviolacea, comb. nov. Prior to this paper, the species was included in the genus Mutilla (Lelej 2005), but its similarity to the males of K. annamensis and K. harmandi, and its occurrence in northern India and Nepal suggest that it belongs in Kurzenkotilla .
