Formosempria crassicornis Wei and Nie 2002: 837, 839, 846, 848, figs 10, 11 (female sheath, saw on p. 848); Wei et al. 2006: 527 (listed); Haris 2012: 138 (recorded from Vietnam).

Comments.

This species was described from Hainan, China. The holotype, deposited in the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, was not examined.

The figures by Wei and Nie (2002) of the female sheath and lancet do not differ from F. varipes, and F. crassicornis may be a synonym. Even though distinguishing characters for the species are not evident in the description and the species seems to fall within the range of F. varipes, it is kept valid until the type can be examined. Haris (2012) recorded a female from Vietnam ("N. Vietnam, Ninh Binh, Cue Phuong NP, near centre, c. 225 m, 20.xii.1999-19.ii.2000"), but gave no discussion. This specimen was not examined.
