Diagnosis

Face with lateral part swollen, median part concave, upper margin U-shaped medially; propodeum with strong basal transverse carina, area superomedia closed; first tergite with median longitudinal carinae nearly extending to oblique grooves.

Distribution

Previously known from China, Taiwan, India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines ( Gupta 1962; Yu et al. 2005; Amanda et al. 2011), this is the first record of this species from Vietnam ( Figure 8 View Figure 8 ).

Remarks

Five subspecies are currently recognized: T. clathrata clathrata , T. clathrata asaphia Gupta , T. clathrata flavolineata (Cameron) , T. clathrata javensis Gupta and T. clathrata malayensis Gupta. The Vietnamese specimens belong to T. clathrata malayensis , which differs from the others by its mesosoma and metasomal tergites with distinct black marks and epicnemial carina strong, extending to the anterior margin of the mesopleuron.
