Diagnosis (male). General body color brown, transverse setal ctenidia of hind tibia not reaching its anterior face. These characteristics differentiate this species from H. multiseriata and H. chilensis , respectively. Clear differences to H. dividua will probably be only found with SEMs of the phallus of H. flavimarginata and/or the finding of female specimens of this species.

Material examined (by photos). Holotype, ♂, MYANMAR, Kachin, Kambaiti , 25.4°N 98.11°E, 11.v.1934, 2100 m, Malaise, René leg. ( MZF).

Geographical distribution. Known from a single locality in Myanmar.
