Remarks.
Iwata (1928) described this species as a member of the European genus
Drusus
Stephens. The
type
series specimens of this species deposited in the collection of KUM are early instar larvae, and not in good condition, being dried up. However, general morphology, especially setation on the head, thorax and legs of these larvae is very similar to that of 2nd or 3rd instar larvae of Japanese
Pseudostenophylax
examined in this study. Although I could not identify the specimens to the species level, this species must belong to the genus
Pseudostenophylax
. No adult of the subfamily
Drusinae
has been collected from
East Asia
. The
type
locality of this species is in the ranges of
P. tochigiensis
and
P. ondakensis
.
