INTRODUCTION The monographic work dealing with the Ethmiinae taxa of the Palaearctic Region in broad sense has been published by SATTLER (1967). The next comprehensive papers on the Ethmiinae fauna of Asia were submitted by ZAGULAJEV (1975), LIU (1980), ROBINSON et al. (1984), DUBATOLOV et al. (1997), SlNEV (1997), WANG & ZHENG (1997) and KUN & SZABÓKY (2000). The present paper is the second in my series on the SE Asian Ethmiinae based on taxonomic studies carried on new expedition materials collected lately by several professional and private collectors. MATERIAL Materials examined from this region are preserved in the following collections: The Natural History Museum, London (BMNH); Zoologische Staatssammlung, Munich (ZSM); Landesmuseum für Naturkunde, Karlsruhe (LNK); Witt Museum, Munich; Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest (HNHM), and the private collection of CSABA SZABŐKY (Budapest).
