Additional information regarding the ground beetle species of the Asia-Pacific genus Mimocolliuris Liebke, 1933 (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Lebiinae)

Ground beetles of the Genus Mimocolliuris Liebke, 1933 (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Lebiinae) are represented by 17 species globally within the three subgenera (Essora Liebke 1933, Paramimocolliuris Habu 1979, and Mimocolliuris s.str) with an exclusive distribution in the Asia-Pacific region (India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Philippines, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Nepal, China, Taiwan, and Japan). This study provides additional information regarding the Asia-Pacific genus Mimocolliuris by offering a supplementary note for the genus and a revised identification key to the species of the genus Mimocolliuris by including subgenera Essora Liebke, 1933, and Paramimocolliuris Habu, 1979. Additionally, this study provides the first report of the species Mimocolliuris bicoloripes Baehr, 2016 from the Oriental region (India) and also presents a modified description of the species Mimocolliuris pilifera (Nietner, 1858). •Revised key to the species of the Asia-Pacific Genus MimocolliurisLiebke, 1933.•First report of Mimocolliuris bicoloripesBaehr 2016 from the Oriental region (India).•Modified description of the genus MimocolliurisLiebke, 1933.•Modified description of the species Mimocolliuris pilifera (Nietner, 1858).•Intra-specific variations in the local population of Mimocolliuris bicoloripesBaehr 2016 in southern India.
