Abstract

Five new species, Anisandrus montanussp. nov., A. phithakpasp. nov., A. tanaosisp. nov., A. tritonsp. nov., and A. uniseriatussp. nov. are described from Thailand. Anisandrus carinensis (Eggers, 1923) is reported from Thailand for the first time and A. apicalis is removed from the Thai fauna. With the inclusion of the species described and recorded here, the diversity of Anisandrus is increased to 40 species, of which 11 occur in Thailand. A synoptic list and a key to the Anisandrus of Thailand are presented.
