Material examined. Holotype ♀, Shengtang Mountain, Jinxiu County, Guangxi province, 1981. X.14, alt. 1979 m, leg. JIN Gen-Tao & LI Fu-Liang; 36♂ 8♀, Maoer Mountain, Xing’an County, Guangxi province, 2013. VIII.1–2, alt. 500–2100 m, leg. ZHU Wei-Bin et al.; 1♂, Maoer Mountain, Xing’an County, Guangxi province, 2013. VII.30–VIII6, alt. 500–1100 m, leg. WANG Han-Qiang; 1♀, Mengla County, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan province, 1958. IX.10, alt. 620–650 m, leg. MENG Xu-Wu.

Discussion. This species occurs in Vietnam and adjacent Chinese areas. As for Maoer Mountain National Nature Reserve, it lives mainly in the understorey of bamboos at low altitude in a certain number overlapping with Decma (Decma) fissa (Xia & Liu, 1992), which is the largest Meconematinae population of this area. Both males and females were treated as different species. When large populations occur, wandering females can be found during the day time, but not males. It was difficult for us to capture both genders together.

Distribution. China (Guangxi, Yunnan); Vietnam (Hasonbinh, Hanoi)
