However, this study surprisingly reports its presence on the Asian mainland for the first time, at a location remarkably distant from the type locality. In fact, the species appears to have a much wider distribution across the Indochinese region than previously recognized. Additionally, a fresh male specimen was collected in a white rotting log, while the other one was caught by a light trap.</p>
