Harpalus (Pseudoophonus) disimuciulus Huang, Lei, Yan & Hu, 1996

Harpalus (Pseudoophonus) disimuciulus Huang, Lei, Yan & Hu, 1996: 121 , 124. Type locality: Wansheng, 1350 m, Sichuan, China.

Remarks. This species was described from two specimens (male and female) collected in Wansheng (1350 m), Sichuan, China. According to the original description, it "resembles H. muciulus Huang [= H. fokienensis ], but it is distinguished from the latter as follows: interval 8 to 10 with cilia, hind femur with a row of seven setae near hind margin, sternite 2 to 6 each with an ellyptic fovea at lateral area respectively". The illustrated aedeagus ( Huang et al. 1996: Fig. 4) has terminal lamella "large and round". The examination of the type specimens is necessary to clarify the status of this taxon.
