Treatment

Thinonoma opaca ( Bernhauer, 1915) , comb. n.

Tachyusa opaca Bernhauer, 1915: 149 View in CoL .

Tachyusa asperata Cameron, 1928: 418 View in CoL , syn. n.

Type material. Tachyusa opaca Bernhauer. Holotype: ♀: Borneo, Matang, 7.XII.1913, Moulton, Tachyusa opaca Bernh. typus unic. ( FMNH).

Tachyusa asperata Cameron. Lectotype: ♂: Mt. Dulit , 3000 ft., T. asperata Cam. (BMNH) .

Comments. A comparison between the types and additional specimens, showed that Tachyusa asperata is conspecific with Tachyusa opaca , and consequently a junior synonym of the latter. Based on the abdomen weakly constricted at base, the abdominal basal transverse impressions indistinctly impressed, the very long antennae with all antennomeres elongate and the labrum with deeply emarginated apical margin, the species is transferred to the genus Thinonoma .
