(southeastern Yunnan: Dawei Shan near Pingbian), D. (M.) praefigens spec. nov. (eastern Yunnan: region to the north, northwest, and northeast of Kunming), and D. (M.) emeiana spec. nov. (Sichuan: Emei Shan). The distributions of the new species and other named species of the genus in China and Taiwan are mapped. Domene now includes 64 named species, 15 of which have been recorded from China (13) and Taiwan (2).
