3.3 Genus Orphnebius MOTSCHULSKY, 1858 View in CoL

This speciose genus was previously represented in the East Palaearctic and Oriental regions by 174 species, many of them of doubtful identity and/or doubtful intrageneric affiliations. When compiling a comprehensive checklist for the previous contribution ( ASSING 2017a), one species was overlooked: Orphnebius ferrugineus CAMERON, 1939 from Sri Lanka. Including this species and the six newly described taxa, the Orphnebius fauna of the Palaearctic and Oriental regions now includes 181 species.
