Remarks
The synonymization of Cinygmina with Afronurus is recognized by Wang and McCafferty (2004)[1], Kluge (2004)[2], and Braasch and Freitag (2008)[3]. The genus Afronurus includes at least 43 species from the Oriental region (Braasch 1987[4], 1990[5], 2005[6], 2011[7]; Braasch and Boonsoong 2010[8], Braasch and Soldán 1984a[9], 1987[10], Flowers and Pescador 1984[11], Braasch and Jacobus 2011[12], Kang and Yang 1994[13], Kimmins 1937[14], Nguyen and Bae 2003[15], Venkataraman and Sivaramakrishnan 1989[16], Zhou and Zheng 2003[17]). It indicates the complicated situation in determining species of Afronurus in the Oriental; in Southeast Asia many species are known only by larvae, or described as adults with affiliation of larvae from the same locality; the rearing of species and genetic investigations will be the aim of a future research. Afronurus larvae are usually the dominant heptageniid benthic macro-invertebrates in Thai streams. In this study, we propose five described species of the genus Cinygmina Kimmins, 1937 = Afronurus Lestage, 1924.
