            <p>Remarks.</p>
            <p> Homidia cingula is characterized by dark transverse bands on Abd. II-III, 5+5 central mac on Abd. II, and 1+1 central mac on Abd. III. It has similar colour pattern to  H. subcingula from Dalat, Vietnam (dark Abd. II and III). Mitra (1976) considered them as synonyms and doubtfully thought that  Börner’s H. cingula represented juveniles of  H. subcingula . However, the re-examination of the type specimen (2.4 mm) of  H. subcingula in MNHN by the senior author (F. Zhang) shows that both taxa are valid species, although the type of  H. cingula is in poor condition and many details are impossible to visualize.  Homidia subcingula differs from the  H. cingula in the narrow strip on posterior Abd. IV, Abd. V pigmented, 11+11 mac on Abd. I, and 6+6 (m3ea present) central mac on Abd. II. In addition, the validation of  H. glassa , which also possesses pigmented Abd. II-III, is questionable. Chaetotaxy of Abd. I-III of  H. glassa could be closer to  H. subcingula , but this differs from that of  H. cingula (Table 1). </p>
            <p>Molecular results</p>
            <p> Our results show that pairwise genetic distances range from 0.03 to 0.212 among 10  Homidia species (Table 2). The genetic distance between specimens of  H. cingula from Yunnan (China) and Java is 0.03 (Table 2). The small genetic divergence (Hebert et al. 2003) indicates that these specimens belong to the same species (Fig. 23). </p>
