( Fig. 13 )

Odonturisca epiproctalis Gorochov, 2008: 39

Material examined. EAST MALAYSIA: Sabah State • 1♂; Trusmadi Entomology Camp ; N5.44174, E116.45074, 1189.0± 5.2 m.a.s.l.; 1 November 2023, 5h45; attracted to light trap at the ridge; coll. M.K. Tan, J.L. Yukang & A.Y.C. Chung; SBH.23.57 ( ZRC).

Remarks. The tenth abdominal apex, cercus, subgenital plate and genitalia sclerotization of our ♂ specimen resemble the description by Gorochov (2008). Curiously, the apical segment of the maxillary palpi is uncharacteristic of the genus, being distinctly shorter and stout, resembling that of Alloteratura , instead of being equal in length to the subapical segment.

Distribution. Borneo (Mount Trus Madi in Sabah).

Type locality. EAST MALAYSIA, Sabah, Mount Trus Madi .
