Type species.

Multiproductus ramosus Xing, Dai & Li, 2011.

Remarks.

For the relationship and diagnosis of Multiproductus Xing, Dai & Li, 2011 see Xing et al. (2011: 65). Multiproductus is distributed in China (Oriental Regions). This genus is especially well differentiated from other genera of Paralimnini in Deltocephalinae by the unique forewing with outer subapical cell extended to costal margin, branches of vein R recurved distally, resulting in fifth (outer) apical cell. The two species of this genus are very similar in appearance. This situation is similar to the paralimnine genus Paralaevicephalus wherein all species are essentially the same in external appearance and several different species can be collected in the same location.

Distribution.

China (Guizhou, Yunnan, Hainan).
