Raivuna sp.

( Figs 1B, C View Fig )

Material examined. NEPAL: 1 J, Godawari Kathmandu V., 13,14, 17. ix.1987, H. Takizawa ( EIHU).

Remarks. This genus is a new record for Nepal. Raivuna includes 32 described species distributed in the Afrotropical, Palaearctic and Oriental Regions (Bඈඎ*©Ǥඈංඇ 2020). The single male specimen examined from Nepal is similar to Raivuna pallida (Donovan, 1800) , but differs from the latter by the pale green body coloration. This specimen needs to be further studied in detail.

Tribe Orthopagini Emeljanov, 1983
