Angamiana vemacula ( Chou et Yao, 1986) comb. nov.

Proretinata vemacula Chou et Yao, 1986 , Entomotax. VIII(3): 190.

Material examined. Yen Bai: 3male, 1female, Mu Cang Chai, 1000m, viii.2003, coll. Tran Thieu Du. Distribution. Vietnam (Yen Bai prov.), China ( Chou et al., 1997).

Remarks. In 1997, after curiously confirming this genus and its species (op. cit.: 163–166), Chou and his collaborators synonymized Proretinata with Angamiana (op. cit., 166). In 2005, Boulard, agreed with this unusual action, but he considered the “ex- Proretinata ” species as varieties of A. floridula Distant, 1904 . However, after we checked figs and description of male genitalia of three species of Proretinata in Chou et Yao, 1986 and Chou et al., 1997, it is very clear that these are distinct species, according to the male genitalia structures, such as shape of the pygofer and uncus lobe. In this paper we transfer those species into the genus Angamiana , i.e., Angamiana vemaculata ( Chou & Yao, 1986) , Angamiana yunnanensis ( Chou & Yao, 1986) , Angamiana fuscula ( Chou & Yao, 1986) .
