Additional material examined. INDONESIA: SUMATRA: Mentawai, Sipora Is., Sereinu, v.–vi.1894, 1 ♂, E. Modigliani leg. ( BMNH); Mentawai, Siberut Is., 50–100 m, iii.–iv.2005, 2 ♂♂, local collector leg. ( HMHJ); Mentawai, Siberut Is., SW coast, 0–100 m, iii.2005, 1 ♂, local collector leg. ( HMHJ).
Comments. This species was described based on four females from Mentawai Islands ( Fig. 74 View Figs 74–83 ). REID (1999) did not classify T. fulvovirens in the T. deusta species-group because males were unknown to him. I found altogether four males with characteristically modified antennae ( Fig. 75 View Figs 74–83 ) and accordingly I assign T. fulvovirens to the T. deusta species-group.
