Notes.

After examination of fresh pale specimens keying out to Orthogonalys elongata Teranishi, it was obvious (e.g. colour pattern of head) that they belong to a separate species for which the name of O. hirasana Teranishi, 1929, is available. In Chen et al. (2014) the figured female from Sichuan belongs also here considering its colour pattern. Here we illustrate the male of this species (Figs 50-59). The female from Pingheliang has the mesopleuron entirely black.

The interpretation of O. albomaculata Bischoff, 1951, from N. India is provisional because only males are known. The propodeum is coarsely reticulate, the pronotal side crenulate medially, the third submarginal cell of fore wing comparatively large and the propodeum has a large ivory patch.
