Scymnus (Pullus) ancontophyllus Ren and Pang 1993 (Hubei) .
Distribution. China (Hubei, Sichuan, Yunnan, Shaanxi).
Specimens Examined. (7 total), Sichuan: Baoxing: (1), Nigabou (3), Shaanxi: Zhenba (2); Yunnan: Lijiang: (1).
Remarks. This species seems varied in coloration. Ren and Pang (1993) described the coloration of this species as head yellowish brown, pronotum brown and elytra black with apex yellow. Only one of the specimens from Shaanxi matches this description; all other specimens differ as follows: pronotum dark brown with the anterior and lateral margins lighter, elytron dark reddish brown with apical 1/8 brown and a large reddish brown disc, suture darker in color or the disc enlarged and confluent with other elytron. The examined specimens do not have the threadlike appendix on the apex of the sipho described by Ren and Pang (1993).
