(as Aptychella tonkinensis, Tixier 1971: 146).
[Tixier (1977: 423) treated Aptychella tonkinensis as a
synonym of A. tenuiramea. However, the author did not transfer
his Thai collections to the latter species by citing them in specimens
examined section. Since the report of this species for Thailand
was based on Tixier's (1971) study, it would be difficult to determine
where Tixier's Thai collections under the name, Aptychella
tonkinensis belong to. These specimens may belong to either
one of the two species. According to Tan (1990: 423), the types
of the two species concerned are different, representing two distinct
species. Tan & Iwatsuki (1993) reported Gammiella tonkinensis
from Thailand by continuing citation of Tixier's (1971) paper.
It appears that the record of this species from Thailand is questionable
since Tixier (1977) considered both species identical or at least
his Thai collections belonging to Aptychella tenuiramea
(Tixier 1977). A final placement of these specimens cannot be
determined until these specimens are examined].
