de Nicéville, 1889, a rare species of Hesperiidae previously known to be distributed from northeastern India to Indochina, is reported from southwestern Yunnan and southwestern Chongqing, China. A 658 bp COI gene sequence of this species is published for the first time. Although Chongqing is obviously isolated from the main distribution range, morphological characters of the specimens from this locality do not indicate a subspecies differentiation. Another rare taxon, (Moore, 1884), is also recorded from China for the first time based upon a male specimen from Cuona County in the Tibet Autonomous Region. This is the second specimen of from China, over 100 years after the holotype of Evans, 1949. The genitalia of both species are illustrated and described. Some taxonomic notes and a distribution map are provided as well.
1889年的德尼塞维尔弄蝶(de Nicéville, 1889)是弄蝶科的一个稀有物种,此前已知分布于印度东北部至印度支那,现报道在中国云南西南部和重庆西南部发现该物种。首次公布了该物种658个碱基对的细胞色素氧化酶亚基I(COI)基因序列。尽管重庆明显与主要分布范围隔离,但来自该地区的标本的形态特征并未显示出亚种分化。另一个稀有分类单元,(摩尔,1884年),也首次基于来自西藏自治区措那县的一只雄性标本在中国被记录。这是自1949年埃文斯(Evans)的正模标本100多年后,该物种在中国的第二个标本。文中展示并描述了这两个物种的生殖器。还提供了一些分类学注释和分布图。
