Hypocacia wenhsini Yamasako & Chou, 2013: 97 .

Hypocacia sp. 2: Chou, 2004: 376; 2008: 376.

Type locality. Shouka, Shihzih Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan .

Type material examined. Holotype: ♀ (NMNS, Figs 13–14, 35, 75–91), Shouka, Shihzih Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan, 7. VII, 1999, W.- H. Lin leg. Paratype: 1♀ (CJY, Figs 15–16, 36), same locality as the holotype, 8. V, 2012, W.- I Chou leg.

Antennomeres III and IV with tuft of black hairs at each apex, but the one on antennomere IV sometimes reduced. Elytra with transverse band of yellowish ochre pubescence at middle and transverse narrow black bands before and behind ochre one.

Remarks. Although this species was described in the genus Hypocacia by Yamasako & Chou (2013), it is congeneric with Metipocregyes and very closely related to M. fruhstorferi . Therefore, this species is transferred to Metipocregyes . The detailed description of this species was provided and figured in Yamasako & Chou (2013).
