Using Gressitt (1951), I reach Allotraeus sauteri (Matsushita, 1931) from Formosa.
I have got a female of this species, which is very similar to A. asiaticus.
According to Gressitt, A. sauteri belongs to the sg. Nysina, despite it shows spines on the 6th antennomere.
In fact, according to Gressitt, Allotraeus s. str. includes only A. sphaerioninus, which has more slender femurs.
Actually, this character is variable: Allotraeus (s. str.) griseolus has globose femurs, while A. (Nysina) baibarana has slender femurs.
In my opinion, Allotraeus = Nysina and no subgenera exist.
