Note. 5 male all from the same locality Tjibodas of Java, cerci of all specimens are same as original description, subgenital plate with styli clearly ( Karny, 1924), though the genus was described as “male genital plate without styles” ( Gorochov, 1998: 127). Actually, a pair of small styli does exist in Pseudoteratura sundaica (Kästner, 1932) , as showed by Gorochov himself (1998: 129, Fig. 210). 1 male from Mindanao of Philippines enlarged the geographic distribution range of this genus.
