Abstract

Aberrasine ryabinini sp. nov. is described from the northern part of the Central Highlands region of Vietnam (Kon Tum Province). Aberrasine aberrans (Butler, 1877) is reported from Vinh Phuc Province and represents the first record of the species for Vietnam and the Indochina peninsula. An updated checklist of valid Aberrasine species is presented.
