Eurydiopsis brevispinus Feijen, 1999 (Fig. 10) Eurydiopsis brevispinus Feijen, 1999: 229 (♂ holotype, 1♀ paratype from Myanmar, Mt Victoria, Chin Hills (so quite close to Mizoram), iii.1938 (BMNH), 1♀ paratype from Myanmar, 1♀, 1♂ paratypes from Laos (UZMH)): Datta & Parui 1999: 31 (a Meghalaya specimen misidentified as E. subnotata, H.R. Feijen identified the same specimen as E. brevispinus during his visit to NZSI in 1999); Mitra et al. 2015: 60 (again the same Meghalaya specimen, now as E. brevispinus). Distribution: India (Meghalaya), Myanmar, Laos. Remarks: Indian Eurydiopsis have several times been referred to E. subnotata (Westwood, 1848), but Feijen (1999) questioned these identifications and indicated E. subnotata as a species from the south-eastern islands of the Philippines. Brunetti (1907: 164) recorded “ E. subnotata ” from Asom. Datta and Biswas (1985: 220) recorded the same Asom specimens to E. subnotata. During the present study, a pair of E. brevispinus (Fig. 10) was examined from Meghalaya, Nongpoh Forest, 7.xi.2002, A. Freidberg (SMNHTAU).
