Telosticta bidayuh (Platystictidae) is part of a genus described in 2012, comprising 17 species endemic to Borneo and Palawan. There are 14 of them in Sarawak, but only six (fortunately for identification by amateurs!) in the western part that we surveyed.

Drepanosticta rufostigma (Platystictidae) a été décrit par Selys (sous le genre Platysticta), dans son synopsis des Platystictinae de Bornéo (1).Il y a au moins 14 Drepanosticta au Sarawak (2), c'est pourtant le seul que nous ayons rencontré. Il ne faut pas se cacher les yeux, les Platystictidae sont une famille très difficile en Asie (et
