Formosa H. Sauter 1912/ 22.V./ Syntypus/ Neoserica sauteri Mos. J. Moser sp. n." (DEI), 3 1 $ "Kosempo Formosa H. Sauter 1912/ 22.V./ Syntypus" (DEI). Additional material examined - 1 ex. (c?) "Taiwan, Pingtung Prov. 10 km E of Mutan, 400 m, 12.VI.1997 B. Herczig & L. Ronkay" (HNHM), 6 ex. "Taiwan: Wushe 22., 29.V.1983 H. Townes 1150 m" (HAHC), Notes - Aedeagus: Figs 7-9. Selaserica rufocastanea KOBAYASHI is a junior synonym of Trioserica macrophthalma (MOSER) (= N. sauteri MOSER, in litteris). The slight differences in the parameres are not significant and should be regarded as individual variation. The type species of Trioserica MOSER, 1922 is fixed here: Trioserica lepi­chaeta MOSER, 1922. Syntype (examined): 1 S "Philippinen Mindoro Subaan" (ZMHB). The species Selaserica antennalis NOMURA, 1974 and Selaserica alternata NOMURA, 1974 were not examined during this study, but on the basis of NOMU­RA'S drawings accompanying the original descriptions, these species should also be placed into Trioserica, In addition, a revision of the species placed in Trioserica by MOSER (1922) is needed. Figs 7-9. Trioserica macrophthalma (MOSER, 1918) (Syntype: Kosempo); 7, 9 = aedeagus lateral, 8 = parameres dorsal (scale: 1 mm)
