Lin, Meiying, Montreuil, Olivier, Tavakilian, Gérard & Yang, Xingke, 2009, Reinstatement of the genus Heteroglenea Gahan, with four new combinations, four new synonyms and three new species (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Lamiinae: Saperdini), Zootaxa 2137, pp. 1-22 : 12-13

Heteroglenea momeitensis (Breuning) comb. nov. ( Figs 28–29 )

Glenea momeitensis Breuning, 1956: 774 .

Glenea momeitensis, Breuning, 1966: 691 [Catalogue].

Remarks. Although Breuning (1956) only designated one male type, which was deposited in NHML, we found a female “ paratype ” in NMB. In the first paragraph of Breuning’s (1956) description, he mentioned both male and female. This “ paratype ” in NMB was labelled with “H te Birmanie, Etat de Momeit” and “ Glenea momeitensis , mihi, P.T.” (Breuning’s handwriting). It is obvious that this example is the female examined by Breuning when he described the species.

The record from Nepal ( Weigel A., 2006) is a misidentification of H. gemella Lin et Yang sp. nov.

Distribution. Myanmar.
