Type locality. China: Hainan Prov., Ledong County, Jianfengling N. R., Yulingu, 18.74686°N, 108.92988°E, ca. 635 m.

Additional material examined (2 specimens). VIETNAM: HÒA BÌNH: 2 ♂♂, ‘Vietnam, Hoa bing , 4.- 7.6.1986, Ha son binh prov., Jan Horák lgt.’ ( MHNG) .

Comments. This species was originally described based on three males from Hainan, as a member of the genus Pselaphodes . It is characterized primarily by the male antennomere 9 with an acute anteromedial triangular process, the long horn-like metaventral processes, and a broad median lobe of aedeagus in lateral view. Due to the presence of a distinct metaventral fovea between the metaventral processes, this species is here transferred from Pselaphodes to Labomimus . No distinct intraspecific variation has been detected between the populations of China and Vietnam.

Distribution. China: Hainan; Vietnam: Hòa Bình (Y I N et al. 2012; this paper). First country record for Vietnam.
