From Guizhou, altitude ~1200 m, body length ~12 mm.
According to Gressitt, this is the only species in the genus Allotraeus that has tubercles at the side of prothorax. |

I agree.
Concerning the taxonomy of this genus, I have seen that Nysina has been rehabilitated as genus in the Catalog of Löbl & Smetana. Do you know if this setting has been established by some serious specialist? |

Thanks. No, I don't know the establishment of Nysina as genus, I just followed Löbl & Smetana and TITAN.

Yes. The last Nysina-species - Allotraeus fenestrellus Holzschuh, 2007 - was described as Allotraeus. According to Titan, Nisaato (2007) considered Nysina as a subgenus. Hua et alii (2009, Iconography) conserve Allotraeus. After these, no further scientific paper has been written.
Evidently, this is another nonsense of that crazy catalog. |
