Phalacra meiyuae Buchsbaum

A single female of a third species was taken by E.W. Classey at just over 500m near Poring just east of G. Kinabalu in Sabah.

It is a pale, dull grey species, fasciated in a similar manner to its Bornean congeners.

Further material is needed to ascertain its status and relationships with confidence.

Taxonomic notes

Phalacra meiyuae was described by Buchsbaum (2003) after his discovery in 2002 of a second specimen at the same locality as that noted in 1998 (a male, not  a female as originally stated).
