Athemus (Andrathemus) longipilis subincisus Wittmer, 1995a: 219 .
Type material examined. HOLOTYPE: J, ‘ Yunnan, Yulongshan mts. , 27°01′N 100°12′E, 2900- 3500 m, 24.-26.v.1993, Vít Kubáň leg.’ ( NHMB) GoogleMaps . PARATYPES: the following specimens be-
long to A. subincisus : same data, 3 ♀♀ ; the following specimens belong to different species: same locality data, 27°00′N 100°12′E, 2700-3200 m, 23.-24.vi.1993, 3 ♀♀ GoogleMaps ; same locality data, N slope, 27°14′N 100°15′E, 5.vii.1992, 1 ♀ (all NHMB) GoogleMaps .
Comments. The type series consists of at least two species. All specimens were wrongly attributed the same data of collecting (23.-24.vi.) in the original description, which also mentioned only six paratypes instead of the correct number of seven. The holotype and three female paratypes belongs to A. (Andr.) subincisus , while the four remaining ones belong to another, undescribed species of the subgenus Isathemus Wittmer, 1995 . Because A. longipilis Wittmer, 1995 belongs to the subgenus Isathemus (see below) while A. subincisus classifies into the subgenus Andrathemus Wittmer, 1978 , it must be given a full species status. Excluding the subgeneric differences (see below under A. longipilis ) and the different last sternite of female (already mentioned in the original description), A. subincisus differs from A. longipilis Wittmer, 1995 in the shape of the aedeagus, arcuate temples and less darkened vertex and pronotum.
