Mallinella thaleri Dankittipakul & Schwendinger, 2009: 382 , figs 1–11, 13–19, description of ♀

Material examined. Holotype: ♂, THAILAND, Surat Thani Province: Koh Phagan District, Ko Tao , secondary and evergreen forests, 7–10 July 2005, leg. P.J. Schwendinger ( MHNG TH 05 View Materials /04) . Paratypes: 5♂, 5♀, same same data as holotype ( MHNG, TNHM) . Other material. THAILAND, Krabi Province: 1♂, Ao Luk District, mountain ca. 1 km east of Ao Luk Tai (8º22'30"N, 98º44'30"E), 70 m, secondary forest on limestone, 11 July 2007, leg. P.J. Schwendinger ( MHNG, TH–07/06) GoogleMaps .

Diagnosis. Heliconilla thaleri comb. nov. seems closest to H. mesopetala sp. nov. in possessing a bifurcated embolus and its blunt petal-shaped mesal ramus being terminally swollen (Figs 1279, 1338). Males can be distinguished by the apically twisted lateral ramus provided with a modified apex (Fig. 1335, 1337), and by the indented apex of the mesal ramus (Fig. 1336). Females are distinguished by the enlarged tubular proximal part of the spermathecae, and by the simple distal part with fewer coils (Figs 1315, 1339).

Distribution. Southern Thailand below the Isthmus of Kra.
