3.3. Genus Episkiodrusilla PACE, 2013

This recently described genus currently includes five species, the type species E. rubricollis (CAMERON, 1939), originally described from North India (CAMERON 1939) and subsequently reported also from South India (PACE 2001), E. franzi (PACE, 1992) from Nepal, E. neocoenonicacollis (PACE, 2008) from Borneo, E. malayrubricollis PACE, 2013 from Peninsular Malaysia, and E. veluticollis PACE, 2013 from Taiwan (PACE 2013). Based on external characters, particularly the morphology of the pronotum and the dense non-setiferous punctation on tergite VII, this species is unlikely to be closely allied to Drusilla as suggested by PACE (2013). According to CAMERON (1939), the sculpture of tergite VII resembles that of Pheidologitonetes CAMERON, 1939 .
