Selangomonus indicus Wei & Webb & Dai 2025, gen. et comb. nov.
Selangomonus indicus (Distant, 1908) gen. et comb. nov. Scaphoideus indicus Distant, 1908: 374–375. Scaphotettix indicus – Viraktamath & Mohan 1993: 464, figs 1–13. Remarks Although the male genitalia of this species were figured by Viraktamath & Mohan (1993) these figures cannot be considered reliable as the lectotype from Myanmar designated by Viraktamath & Mohan (1993) and paralectotype from India are both female and males are needed for identification. Also, there are some differences in the figures given here and in two other publications for the species (see below), therefore all identifications for the species must be considered tentative. In addition, the placement of the species in Selangomonus gen. nov. is also tentative as there are no external features to separate the Scaphoideus group genera. Distribution Myanmar.
