Diagnosis. See under O. ancora and O. trispina .

Distribution. China (Fujian, Yunnan).

Remarks. Examination of the holotype of O. dalia shows that it is identical to O. flavobrunnea and we therefore here synonymize it to the latter species: the specimen designated as allotype of O. dalia was found to be a male, and we therefore treat it as a paratype.
