Kamimuria Vn-A

(Figs. 92-93)

Material examined. Vietnam, Lao Cai, Sapa, OkuiHo, 1100 m, 24-25 March 1995, W. Mey, 1 ♀ (ZMH).

Egg. Outline oval with short, stalked collar; collar rim

flanged and irregularly incised. Chorion covered throughout with pits or clusters of shallow pock marks; largest pits occur in a band covering middle third of egg, pits near collar and on lid are small, shallow and clustered in small groups of ca. 3-8 (Figs. 92-93).

Diagnosis. The egg of this specimen is distinct from the others known from Vietnam and Thailand but might represent K. similis, which was described from a male from this area.
