Abstract

Two new junior synonymies in Lispe are proposed herein: L. bivittata Stein, 1909 = L. guizhouensis Wei, 2006 syn. nov. and L. nicobarensis Schiner, 1868 = L. leigongshana Wei & Yang, 2007 syn. nov. Both species are diagnosed with photographs and terminalia illustrations. The identity of L. subbivittata Mou, 1992, a former subspecies of L. bivittata, is discussed.
