Notes. Sarcinodes debitaria and S. mongaku are closely related, and are first recorded from Indochina. Formerly S. debitaria was considered as a West Asian (Himalayan) species, and S. mongaku as an East Asian one. A close relative S. tornubilatus Sommerer is distributed in tropical Asia (Sumatra, Borneo and Java) (Holloway, 1996).
