Comments: The specimen from Mt Missim, collected on Castanopsis acuminatissima , differs from other specimens of this species by the narrower discoidal area (five areolae wide, while others are six). Xenotingis Drake groups seven species from Taiwan, the Philippines, and New Guinea, with four species being restricted to New Guinea ( Drake & Ruhoff 1965; Péricart 2000). Xenotingis papuana is the most widespread of the New Guinean species.
