  • Polistes rothneyi Cameron, 1900, (7) 6: 410.

Notes

In Vietnam, van der Vecht (1968)[1] recorded this species from a single locality in the southern part of the country. The species has been recorded from some provinces in the northern part such as Ha Giang, Cao Bang, Bac Kan, and Lang Son (Nguyen et al. 2015[2], Nguyen 2016[3]). This study adds records from other localities in the northern part of the country, and one southern record has been also added.
In previous study in Vietnam, this species has only one color form and it agrees with the color form that van der Vecht (1968[1]: 106) referred to as subspecies quatei (Fig. 23). In this study, the specimens from the southern part of the country have ground color darker than the specimens from the northern part (Fig. 24).
