Subgenus Patrisaspilota Fischer, 1995

Patrisaspilota Fischer, 1995: 721; Fischer, 2002: 102; 2004: 78; 2010: 636; Wharton 2002: 91 (as subgenus of Orthostigma); Yu et al. 2016; Peris-Felipo et al. 2019: 366; Peris-Felipo and Belokobylskij 2020: 412. View in CoL

Type species.

Patrisaspilota memoranda Fischer, 1995 (= Orthostigma multicarinatum Tobias, 1990 ) by original designation (Figs 38 View Figure 38 , 39 View Figure 39 ). Synonymised by Peris-Felipo et al. 2019.

Material examined.

Holotype ( Orthostigma (Patrisaspilota) multicarinatum ) Vietnam: • ♀, Bathuok , 125 km W of Thanh Hoa, prov. Thanh Hoa, 26. i. 1989 (B. Korotyaev leg.) ( ZISP) . Paratype ( Orthostigma (Patrisaspilota) multicarinatum ) Vietnam: • ♀, Vietnam, Tram Lap , 20 km N of Buon Luoi, prov. Gia Lai – Con Tum, 6. xii. 1988 (Sharkov leg.) ( ZISP) .

Diagnosis.

This subgenus shares the main characters of Orthostigma but has the notauli almost reaching the mesoscutal pit.

Remarks.

The four Oriental species of this subgenus share the almost completely developed notauli as in Dinotrema (Alitha) . The notauli consist of a row of closely located large points more or less reaching the mesoscutal pit. The presence of such type of notauli in different genera of the subtribe Aspilotina ( Orthostigma and Dinotrema ) is obviously a parallelism and perhaps indicates the limited value of the character, viz., at least as subgeneric character.
