- Abstract
The genus Antheromorpha Jeekel, 1968 is reviewed for the Vietnam fauna. A total of four species have been recorded in Vietnam, including a new species, A. pumatensis, new species from Nghe An Province. Two other species, A. paviei (Brölemann, 1896) and A. festiva (Brölemann, 1896) are recorded for the first time in Vietnam. The phylogenetic relationship between Antheromorpha species and several orthomorphinine members is analysed based on fragments of the Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and 16S rRNA mitochondrial genes. Antheromorpha is closely related to the two genera Orthomorpha and Nesorthomorpha. An identification key to species is also provided.
