Paraborboropactus oblatus Tang and Li, 2010a: 53, figs 40A–C, 41A–B. New synonymy.

Type material: Syntype of Angaeus lenticulosus : female from VIETNAM: Annam: Phuc-Son, H.Fruhstorfer, no more data given (MNHN 22125/1573), examined, Figs 1 View FIGURE 1 B–E. Holotype of Paraborboropactus oblatus : female from CHINA: Hainan: Wuzhishan Mountains, Shuiman Township, riverside (N18º53.024', E109º39.804', alt. 638 m), 11 April 2009, G. Tang (IZCAS, not examined).

Synonymy. The female holotype Paraborboropactus oblatus is well illustrated and is here compared with the female syntype of Angaeus lenticulosus . I can find no characters that would suggest that the specimens from China illustrated by Tang and Li (2010a) constitute a species different from A. lenticulosus .

Diagnosis. Females of A. lenticulosus can be distinguished from other species of Angaeus by the presence of H, EC and an EF that considerably widens over the copulatory openings ( Fig 1 View FIGURE 1 C). Males remain unknown.

Description. This species is well described by Tang & Li (2010a).

Distribution. China, Vietnam.
