Before our study, 70 species of lappet moths were known from the northern and central parts of Laos. In this article, we report on the first records of two more species from Laos: Syrastrena lanaoensis continentalis Zolotuhin & Witt, 2000 and Chonopla modulata (Swinhoe, 1890). Thus, the Lasiocampidae fauna of Laos contains 72 species. Additionally, we report on an inaccuracy in Zolotuhin and Witt’s (2000) work. In the original description of Syrastrena lanaoensis continentalis Zolotuhin & Witt, 2000 the figure with the paratype male genitalia was mistakenly described as “Male genitalia of Syrastrena regia sp. n., Holotype”.
