Concerning the type locality of Thoressa nanshaona Murayama, 1995, Chiba et al. (2020) judged "雲南省土官村" as being in 'Tengchong, Yunnan'. However, the village name as "土官村" is common, and it is difficult to determine the exact location of the village without specifying the name of the county and prefecture. There are three villages with this name in Yunnan: one in Chuxiong, C. Yunnan; one in Baoshan, W. Yunnan; and the third in Shangri-La, N.W. Yunnan. Judging from other taxa described in the same paper, it is highly likely to be Shangri-La (Alt. 2900 - 3100m). The only place with the name "Tengchong" is a famous tourist site near the Myanmar border. Therefore, "Tengchong" is considered erroneous. (Shao-Ji Hu pers. comm.).
