Leptataspis moultoni - Lallemand 1923




<< Back to Cercopoidea overview

This is a very rare species, apparently endemic to Thailand.

This was first reported from Thailand in : Lallemand V. 1923 - Description de quelques nouveaux Cercopides de la faune Indo-Malaise. Journal Malayan Branch Royal Asiatic Society 88: 267-270 (page 269). No specimens have been recorded since.

I have not seen this species, but from the descriptions seen, on a personal basis, I would not be surprised if the species was not synonymised with L. fuscipennis and probably L. fulviceps as well (all 3 species have been found on Khao Ramrome!). Detailed study of genitalia and DNA would be required.
