The discovery of both males and females of Pseudostrandesia ratchaburiensis sp.&nbsp;nov. in the present study constitutes the first report of a sexual population in this genus, thereby allowing for a comparison of the male reproductive organs (hemipenis and Zenker’s organ) from a new species with those of other genera of Cypricercinae. <em>Strandesia prachuapensis</em> sp.&nbsp;nov. is most closely related to <em>Strandesia odiosa</em> (Moniez, 1892) and <em>Strandesia flavescens</em> Klie, 1932 as they bear similar anterior flanges on the right valve (RV). The key diagnostic features of the new <em>Strandesia</em> species are a large carapace (ca 1.5 mm), an angulated antero-ventral part of the LV, a weak and small anterior inner list on the LV, an anterior flange on the RV, a markedly small aesthetasc Y on the second antenna, a large β seta on the Md-palp, smooth bristles on the third endite of the Mx1 and a slender CR with a short claw Ga (length ca ⅓ of the ramus). In addition, <em>Pseudostrandesia complexa</em> (Victor &amp; Fernando, 1981) comb. nov. is here proposed.</p>}, number={1}, journal={European Journal of Taxonomy}, author={Savatenalinton, Sukonthip}, year={2021}, month={Jan.}, pages={19–41} }
