Treatment

Miridiba taoi Li & Wang in Li et al., 2015: 528 View Cited Treatment , figs 3, 9, 15, 21, 29–30 (type loc.: Lanyu Island, Taiwan, China).

Miridiba taoi – Bezděk 2016: 272 (catalogue). — Gao et al. 2018: 17 View Cited Treatment (catalogue); 2019: 462 (species list; in key).

Diagnosis

See Li et al. (2015).

Remarks

Li et al. (2015) described Miridiba taoi based on a male holotype and two male paratypes. We were unable to examine the types of M. taoi to study its characters. Hence, M. taoi is considered a valid species. According to antenna 9-segmented and parameres ( Li et al. 2015) this species is included in genital morphotype I “ Trichophora ”.

Distribution

China (Taiwan).
