C o m m e n t: The original description is based on " two females ; taken in the plain of Fujisan" ( SHARP 1889 ). Both syntypes were located in the collections of the BMNH and are in fact males. One of them is designated as the lectotype . Preliminary studies suggest that this species does not belong to Lathrobium , but to a probably undescribed genus of Lathrobiina , of which I have seen several other species from the East Palaearctic region . They will be dealt with in a separate study (ASSING in press) .
