Dicharax (?) sonlaensis (Raheem & Schneider, 2017)
Alycaeus sonlaensis Raheem & Schneider, 2018: 1305, figs 4A-J.
Type locality.
"The earliest Miocene (Aquitanian, 23-21 Ma) Hang Mon Formation at Hang Mon in Northern Vietnam".
Remarks.
This species fits the range of morphological variation of Dicharax fimbriatus , which is an extant species from the same geographic area. However, we find it more useful to keep this taxon as a separate species due to its age. The strikingly similar appearance of an early Miocene species (Aquitanian, 23-21 Ma) to species living today indicates the high level of morphological stability of Dicharax .
