Within the Asiatic tiger beetle fauna, Parmecus Motschulsky, 1864 stat. rest., stat. nov., is reestablished as a subgenus of Cylindera Westwood, 1831 with Cylindera (Parmecus) dromicoides (Chaudoir, 1852), as its type species, and the lectotype and paralectotypes of Cicindela dromicoides Chaudoir, 1852 are designated as well. Two other species are included, Cylindera (Parmecus) armandi (Fairmaire, 1886), from the Himalayan Region, and Cylindera (Parmecus) mosuoa, sp. nov., from Yunnan, China. Cylindera (Parmecus) as a subgenus is characterized, a key to identify its species is provided, and its species composition is discussed. Cylindera (Parmecus) dromicoides (Chaudoir, 1852) is newly recorded from Pakistan and the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, while Cylindera (Parmecus) armandi (Fairmaire, 1886) is recorded for the first time from the Chinese province of Sichuan. The records of C. armandi from Bhutan, as well as C. dromicoides from Yunnan Province (China) are rejected due to erroneous identifications.
在亚洲虎甲动物区系中，1864年莫氏虎甲属（Parmecus Motschulsky），恢复其原地位，新定其为圆柱虎甲属（Cylindera Westwood，1831）的一个亚属，以圆柱虎甲（Cylindera (Parmecus) dromicoides (Chaudoir, 1852)）为模式种，并指定了1852年肖多瓦尔描述的圆柱虎甲（Cicindela dromicoides Chaudoir）的选模标本和副选模标本。该亚属还包括另外两个物种，来自喜马拉雅地区的阿氏圆柱虎甲（Cylindera (Parmecus) armandi (Fairmaire, 1886)）和来自中国云南的新物种莫氏圆柱虎甲（Cylindera (Parmecus) mosuoa）。对圆柱虎甲亚属（Cylindera (Parmecus)）进行了特征描述，提供了识别其物种的检索表，并讨论了其物种组成。圆柱虎甲（Cylindera (Parmecus) dromicoides (Chaudoir, 1852)）在巴基斯坦及印度查谟和克什米尔邦为新记录，而阿氏圆柱虎甲（Cylindera (Parmecus) armandi (Fairmaire, 1886)）在中国四川省为首次记录。不丹的阿氏圆柱虎甲记录以及中国云南省的圆柱虎甲记录因鉴定错误而被否定。
