Remarks.
This species was placed in the genus
Zonitoschema
by
Bologna (2008)
. However, according to the description and illustration published by
Kôno (1936a)
, this species belongs to the genus
Zonitomorpha
. The valid-ity of this species is still doubtful and needs to be revised in the future: The female (see fig.
2 in
Kôno 1936a
) looks almost like
Zonitomorpha dollei
(Fairmaire, 1889)
(
Fig. 5
), but the sex of the single examined specimen of
Z. dollei
(
Fig. 5
) is unknown and its elytra have weak shinning blue.
