Remarks. Michaelsen (1934b) erected the subspecies Pheretima bianensis duplofasciata Michaelsen, 1934 for specimens from the same locality as Pheretima bianensis bianensis Stephenson, 1931 , but according to Thai (1983) the two subspecies are not clearly distinguishable. It is suggested to re-check material for both subspecies.
