N o t e: The genus Indolinus BORDONI 2002 is composed by few species and seems not common (I. mitomorphoides (COIFFAIT 1984) from Indochinese sub-region; I. formosae (BERNHAUER 1943) from southern China: Guanxi, Hong Kong, and Taiwan; I. sculptilis BORDONI 2002 from Hong Kong; I. vietnamiticus BORDONI 2012d from Vietnam). An other species from Laos (I. laosianus nov.sp.) is in press.
The new species differs from the congeners especially by the aedeagus.
