Abstract
Species of the subfamily Cypricercinae collected from Thailand, mainly from the Northern Provinces, are here reported and/or (re-) described. Nineteen species, belonging to seven genera were found. Six new species, Strandesia hornei sp. nov., Strandesia sanoamuangae sp. nov., Pseudostrandesia gaetani sp. nov., Pseudostrandesia ovata sp. nov., Pseudostrandesia phetchabunensis sp. nov. and Pseudostrandesia thailandensis sp. nov., are described. A species list of the Cypricercinae in Southeast Asia is given and the general distribution and ecology of the Cypricercinae from Thailand is briefly discussed.
