Type material. HOLOTYPE: J, THAILAND: NAKHON RATCHASIMA: Wang Nam Khiao, Udom Sap, Sakaerat Environmental Research Station (SERS), N14.507645 E101.927677, 410 m alt., UV light trap, 15–16 Sep 2008, T. Yasunaga (AMNH _ PBI 00379407) (DOAT). PARATYPES: Same data as for the holotype, 3 JJ 5 ♀♀ (AMNH _ PBI 00379408–00379415) (AMNH, CNC & TYCN); same data, except for date 28 Oct 2008, T. Yasunaga, 1 J 1 ♀ (00379416–00379417) (TYCN), and 31 May 2012, T. Yasunaga, 1 ♀ (00379498) (TYCN). Additional material examined. THAILAND: Same locality (SERS), UV light trap, 12 Dec 2015, T. Yasunaga, 2 JJ 4 ♀♀ (TYCN, without USIs). Diagnosis. Recognized by its moderate size; antennal segment II more than four times as long as I; dark apical 2/5–1/3 of basally yellowish brown antennal segment II; scent efferent system with a distinct knob (Fig. 24); uniformly chocolate (in fresh specimen reddish) brown metacoxa and metafemur; short metatarsomere I (proportion of metatarsomeres I–III = 2: 4: 5); and distinctive form of male (Figs 28–32) and female (Figs 44–46) genitalia. See YASUNAGA (2013) for detailed description. Measurements. See Table 1. Biology. Collection records suggest R. paracastaneae has at least two generations per year; fresh adult individuals (Fig. 1, females with the reddish femora, and Fig. 12) were collected by using UV light trap in May, September and December. Distribution. Central Thailand (Nakhon Ratchasima).
