Distribution
Fig. 58. This species was previously known from several localities, all restricted to the southern parts of the Gaoligong Shan in western Yunnan Province, China, at elevations of 2200–2400 m (Kataev and Schmidt 2006[1]). The new material was also collected on the southern parts of Gaoligong Shan, at elevations of 1800-2500 m, within Longling, Longyang, and Tengchong counties, western Yunnan Province, China.
Habitat
. Specimens were collected in roadside and road cut open areas, on open, disturbed stream banks, and in other disturbed areas (Fig. 70), hidden under stones and other debris during daylight hours and active on the soil surface at night.
Remarks
Kataev and Schmidt (2006)[1] indicated the absence of the parascutellar setigerous pore on elytra in Chydaeus convexus as one of the distinctive features of this species belonging to the semenowi group. The examination of the addition material revealed the high variability of this character. Among 125 specimens examined, the parascutellar setigerous pore was absent from only 55 specimens, in a few from only one elytron.
