This is the iirst représentative of the genus to be reported from Indo- 

 China, although Gagnepain, suspeeting that it might occur there, in- 

 cluded it in his key to the gênera (Lecomte, FI. Gén. Indo-Chine 2: 1184. 

 1923). This Tonkin form seems elearly to be the same as T. intermedia 

 Harms, which Hu, with apparently valid reasons, has plaeed as a variety 

 of T. angulata Oliver. When Wangerin monographed the group in 1910, 

 he had seen no spécimens representing Oliver's species, recognizing 

 three species. T. tiliaejolia DC, T. angulata Oliver, and T. intermedia 

 Harms.
