( Fig. 15 View FIGURE 15 )

2♂ northern Vietnam, Ha Giang province , Dong Van district (?), V–VI. 2016, local collector. First record from Vietnam .

Considering the first record of Ypthima motschulskyi from Vietnam we demonstrate here the images of the male from Vietnam. The male genitalia are similar to genitalia of this species illustrated in literature (e.g., Elwes & Edwards, 1893; Shrôzu & Shima, 1979 and Bascombe et al., 1999) ( Figure 15 View FIGURE 15 ). These illustrations confirm the identity of this new addition to the butterfly fauna of Vietnam.
