Distribution. Thailand (Loei); Vietnam (Thua Thien Hue).

Remarks. Caloapenesia diba sp. nov. resembles C. rikawa sp. nov. by presents head rounded; clypeus rounded; ocellus small; eye small; flagellomeres short. But C. diba sp. nov. presents head elongate; eye smaller than in C. rikawa sp. nov.; ocelli separated; clypeus castaneous; antennae light castaneous; uppermost tooth not with upper margin forming cutting edge; hypopigial median lobe shorter than in C. rikawa sp. nov.; lateral stalk conspicuous and rectangular.
