Comment: Stilicoderus assamensis was described by ROUGEMONT (1986a), based on a single male from Naga Hills (Assam), and subsequently synonymized with S. kambaitiensis (SCHEERPELTZ 1965) by ROUGEMONT (1986b). The aedeagi of the males of the above material are in absolute agreement with the illustration of the aedeagus of the holotype in ROUGEMONT (1986a). A comparison with material of S. kambaitiensis from various regions revealed distinct and constant differences in the shape of the ventral process and the shapes of the apical internal structures, so that there is little doubt that S. assamensis represents a distinct species.
