Loboscelidia laotiana Kimsey, 1988: 71.

Holotype ♂; Laos: Vientiane Prov., Ban Van Eue (BPBM).

Remarks

Loboscelidia laotiana has a triangular frontal projection, longer scape that is more than 3.0 times as long as it is wide, and a shorter F1 and F2 that are less than twice as long as they are wide, which it has in common with L. asiana and L. vang sp. nov. However, L. laotiana can be distinguished by the following characteristics: scale-like setae absent on the lower gena (present in L. asiana); an F11 that is less than 3.0 times as long as it is wide (3.5 times as long as in L. vang sp. nov.); scrobal sulcus present (absent in the other two species); a hindtibial flange that is twice as wide as the tubular part (0.55 times as wide as the tubular part in L. vang sp. nov.); a curved M vein (L. vang sp. nov. straight); and an Rs that is 3.0 times or more as long as R (nearly twice as long as R in L. vang sp. nov.).

Distribution
