Abstract
A new genus, Vietpetalumgen. nov., of the family Paracortinidae is here proposed to accommodate three paracortinid species from Vietnam: V. marmoratumsp. nov., V. simplexsp. nov., and V. kyrang (Nguyen, Stoev, Nguyen & Vu, 2023), comb. nov. A diagnosis of the genus is presented, and the new species are described. Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) barcodes are also provided for these three species.
