Datames guangxiensis BI & LI, 1994: 254 View in CoL ; figs 1–4 [described and illustrated]. Pylaemenes hongkongensis BROCK & SEOW- CHOEN, 2000: 143 View in CoL ; fig. 11 illustrated]. Synonymised by ZOMPRO (2004).

[described,

Dares guangxiensis – ZOMPRO, 2004: 219 View in CoL [transferred to Dares View in CoL ].

Pylaemenes guangxiensis – OTTE & BROCK, 2005: 296 View in CoL [transferred to Pylaemenes View in CoL ]. — CHEN & HE, 2008: 358; fig. 321 A–C; pl. 4 fig. 3 [redescribed (in Chinese), keyed, illustrated].

NOTE. The species is here transferred to Orestes View in CoL based on the examination of the illustrations in CHEN & HE (2008) and the photographs of the type specimen of Pylaemenes hongkongensis Brock & Seow-Choen, 2000 View in CoL ( BROCK et al., 2017). Females have the typical dorsally flattened and apically straight anal segment. They have the widest part of the body at the posterior margin of tergum IV. These characters clearly place guanxiensis in Orestes View in CoL .
