Comments.
Previously reported from
Korea
from a single female specimen without exact locality information (Kwon
et al.
2015b).
Li (2011) erected
Trachotrioza
for two new Chinese species,
T. beijingensis
based on one male and one female, and
T. apicinigra
based on two males. Li’s (2011) description leaves little doubt that
Trachotrioza beijingensis
is a junior synonym of
Eotrioza ussuriensis
originally described from the Russian Far East (Konovalova 1987). The differences between
T. beijingensis
and
T
.
apicinigra
mentioned in the original description (Li 2011), mostly size and colour, are more difficult to interpret. As we have not examined Li’s
types
, we keep the two as separate species and transfer the latter to
Eotrioza
. This results in following nomenclatorial changes:
