Comments.

Labomimus venustus is here transferred to Labomimus based on the presence of a median metaventral fovea. This species is placed in the group with Labomimus paratorus Yin & Li, Labomimus tibialis (Yin & Li), and Labomimus torus (Yin, Li & Zhao) based on the similar modifications of the male legs, and the strongly asymmetric aedeagal median lobe.
