A single female was designated as the
holotype
in the original description (
Sonan and Mitono 1936
) and the specimen (
Fig. 4–6
) examined from TARI matches the description.
Evans (1949)
listed this taxon as a synonym of C.
agni igna
Semper, 1892
without giving any reason. This treatment was followed by
Shirôzu (1960)
and
Bridges (1983)
. The
type
specimen shows the characteristics of
Pseudocoladenia dan
(Moore 1881)
rather than
C. agni igna
(
Shimonoya & Murayama 1976
)
. This viewpoint was accepted by subsequent authors (e. g.
Yamanaka 1980
;
Uchida 1991
;
Chiba
et al.
1992
;
Uchida 1995
;
Hsu
et al.
2007
). The name
sadakoe
Sonan & Mitono, 1936
is considered a valid subspecific name for
P. d a n
from
Taiwan
in the present study.
