( Figs. 15 , 16 E, G)

Ctenoneura major: Princis 1950: 204 .

Ctenoneura birmanica Princis, 1953: 206 , fig. 5. ♂ holotype; Princis, 1963: 102; Roth 1993: 91, figs. 5. A–D. Ipolatta paradoxa Princis, 1950: 205 , 2♀♀.

Type material examined by photos. Holotype of Ctenoneura birmanica , male ( NRM), “N. E. BURMA, Kambaiti , 7000ft . 25/5, 1934, R. MALAISE leg.”. Paratype of Ctenoneura birmanica , male ( NRM), “N. E. BURMA, Kambaiti , 2000m. 28/5, 1934, Malaise leg.”

Other material examined by photos. 1♀ ( NRM), “N. E. BURMA, Kambaiti , 7000ft . 28/3, 1934, R. MALAISE leg.”, with a determination label: “ Ipolatta paradoxa Karry , ♀, det. K. Princis”.

Distribution. North Myanmar (Kambaiti).

Remarks. This species was found in North Myanmar , near the border between Myanmar and China, it may also be distributed in China . Princis (1950) considered two apteral female cockroaches from North Myanmar as females of Ipolatta paradoxa ; after examining the specimen from NRM, we found they are the females of Ctenoneura . The locality information is the same as the types of C. birmanica so we treat them as females of C. birmanica .
