Supplementary description (genitalia). Male genitalia
(
Figs. 5–7
): Tergite VIII (
Figs. 5
a & 5c) broader than long; apex truncated, with setae which are long at sides, and shorter and sparser at middle. Spiculum gastrale slightly shorter than ringed part of tegmen, spiculum relictum about one half of spiculum gastrale in length. Tegmen (
Figs. 6
a–6c) about
3.2 mm
in length; lateral lobes (
Figs. 7
a–7b) slender, tapering apically, each about
0.8 mm
long and
0.2 mm
wide; apex with fine setae which are shorter than half of length of lateral lobes; median lobe slightly curved (
Fig. 6
b) in lateral view, shorter than tegmen (7:8); median struts about half-length of median lobe (
Fig. 6
c); apex of ventral plate (
Fig. 7
a) pointed; endophallus more than triple length of median lobe, with four pieces of basal plate-like sclerites (located behind apex of median struts), and three rod-like sclerites at end, which are about 2.0 mm, much shorter than tegmen.
Female genitalia
: spermathecal capsule (
Fig. 8
) composed of an apical orb and a curved stalk, stalk only a little longer than apical orb. Spiculum ventrale longer than abdomen. In our observation, spiculum ventrale measured
10.8 mm
for an adult with abdomen measured
9.2 mm
in ventral view.

Remarks.
The distribution record from
Hubei
was mentioned by Hua without reference material or literature cited (
Hua 2002
;
Hua
et al
. 2009
) and followed by
Löbl & Smetana (2010)
. We could not examine any specimens from
Hubei
, but found three specimens from
Hebei
.
For the Taiwanese fauna,
E. sedecimpunctata
was recorded by
Chen
et al
. (1959)
, including some ecological notes. Meanwhile,
Menesia sulphurata
(
Gebler, 1825
)
the occurence from
Taiwan
was not included in
Chen
et al
. (1959)
,
Hua (2002)
and
Hua
et al
. (2009)
. Thus, we conclude that these authors misapplied
Saperda sulphurata
Matsumura, 1906
(a homonym of
Saperda sulphurata
Gebler, 1825
and a synonym of
Eutetrapha sedecimpunctata
) to
Saperda sulphurata
Gebler, 1825
. As a result, we exclude
Hubei
and
Taiwan
, and add
Hebei
to the distribution of this species.
The black maculae on the pronotum and elytra are quite variable, and several varieties, aberration or morphs were described as infrasubspecific taxa. Also,
E. duodecimpunctata
=
16-punctata
(Motschulsky, 1960) or
E. variicornis
Bates, 1884
have been synonymized with
E. sedecimpunctata
.
