733D5A20E81AFFEFCFD8FA38F148FC6A.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Roth (1991) placed this species in Sigmella based on the S-shaped medial and cubital veins of the hind wing, and assumed that Bey-Bienko’s description (1958) was incorrect in some respects. After examination of specimens from Yunnan Province, China, deposited in the Insect Collection of the College of Plant Protection, Southwest University, we are confident that Bey-Bienko (1958) was correct. The degree of sinuation of the medial and cubital veins is variable in different individuals, the styli are specialized, and the interstyle process is absent. Therefore, we consider this species to be properly placed in Scalida.	en	Wang, Zongqing, Che, Yanli (2010): The genus Scalida Hebard (Blattaria: Blattellidae, Blattellinae) in China.

733D5A20E818FFE9CFD8FC7FF05BFD82.taxon	discussion	Remarks. This species was previously known only from southern China (Saussure, 1873, Bey-Bienko, 1957) and Myanmar (Princis, 1950). The most distinctive character is the pronotum with pale cephalic and lateral margins. We examined specimens collected from southern China and drew the conclusion that this species should be transferred back to Scalida. The peculiar hind margin of supra-anal plate resembles other species of Scalida, and the interstyle process is absent.	en	Wang, Zongqing, Che, Yanli (2010): The genus Scalida Hebard (Blattaria: Blattellidae, Blattellinae) in China.
