This
widely distributed species is found from
South
China
and
Japan
as far north as
Amur
(
MARTYNOV 1934
).
On Vietnamese
specimens the ninth segment is longer, especially ventrally, the tenth tergum is not compressed midway, the dorsum of the phallotheca is concave. and the endothecal process is larger, covering the entire end.
Although
the
types
of
echiogensis
TSUDA are lost (Tanida, in litt.) it is clear from the original description. and from an examination of Japanese specimens, that it is a synonym of
chinensis
, as this is the only species known from
Japan
.
