Abstract

Prior to this study, the genus Serendib Deeleman-Reinhold, 2001 has been discovered in Indonesia, Thailand and Laos and comprises three species: S. muadai Jäger, Nophaseud & Praxaysombath, 2012, S. suthepica Deeleman-Reinhold, 2001 and S. volans Deeleman-Reinhold, 2001.
The genus Serendib Deeleman-Reinhold, 2001 is reviewed. A new species, S. hispida sp. n. (male and female), representing the first record of genus Serendib from Malaysia, is described. Descriptions and illustrations of the females of S. volans (Malaysia) and S. suthepica (China) are also provided. The latter represents the first record of the genus in China.
