Chydaeus andrewesi Schauberger, 1932

Remarks.

Kataev and Schmidt (2006) treated Chydaeus andrewesi as a member of the obscurus group and recognized two subspecies: the nominotypic form, Chydaeus andrewesi andrewesi , distributed over the eastern Himalaya, and Chydaeus andrewesi szetschuanus Schauberger, 1932, occurring in Sichuan Province, China. Our study of additional material from China and Vietnam (see below) has convinced us that Chydaeus kumei Ito, 1992, described from Vietnam, is conspecific with Chydaeus andrewesi and represents a third subspecies of that species.
