Asparagales: Polygonatum, Smilacina (Okutani 1967, Smith 1969, Lacourt 2020). Liliaceae: Streptopus (Lacourt 2020) .</p><p>Species groups. Smith (1969) divided Phymatocera into three species groups: The group 1, for two Palearctic species, P. aterrima and P. nipponica, with a deep genal-orbital groove ending in a pit, the tarsal claws each with a long outer tooth sharply bent over at its apex and with an inner tooth subequal in length to the outer tooth, and the male antenna with long erect setae; the group 2, for some Nearctic species, without a genal-orbital groove and pit, and with the tarsal claws as those in the group 1 and the male antenna without conspicuous erect setae; and the group 3, for some Nearctic species, similar to the group 2, but with the tarsal claws each with the outer tooth short, not sharply bent over, and with the inner tooth small. The groups 2 and 3 differ only in the shape of their tarsal claws, but P. racemosae Smith, 1969 shows great variation in this shape, obscuring the distinction between the two groups (see Smith 1969, Goulet 1981). Therefore, it is better to consider the groups 2 and 3 together as one group. We refer to Smith’s group 1 as the group of P. aterrima (Klug, 1816), and the group consisting of Smith’s groups 2 and 3 as the group of P. fumipennis (Norton, 1861) .</p><p>Remarks. Phymatocera is distinguished from the other Japanese genera of the Blennocampinae, as stated in the key below. Incidentally, “ Cladardis hartigi ” (auct. non Liston, 1995; e.g. Naito 2019, 2020), Paracharactus leucopodus Rohwer, 1910 and Rhadinoceraea fuscata Togashi, 1984, the only Japanese species in their respective genera, have been placed in the wrong genera. The generic positions of the former two species will be discussed in separate papers. Rhadinoceraea fuscata Togashi, 1984 is moved to Phymatocera in this paper.</p><p>Phymatocera is very similar to Paracharactus, Phymatoceriola, Rhadinoceraea and Veratra . Of the latter four, Paracharactus, Rhadinoceraea and Veratra are not found in Japan and are not included in the key below.</p><p>According to Smith (1969), Paracharactus is often difficult to distinguish Phymatocera because of the considerable variation, but the males of Phymatocera and Paracharactus are distinguished by their genitalia: Phymatocera has the harpe not projecting anteriorly and its anterior end far apart from the basiparamere base (Figs 2N, 11C–E; figs 198, 200 in Smith 1969), whereas Paracharactus has the harpe extremely projecting anteriorly and its anterior end close to the basiparamere base (figs 202, 204 in Smith 1969); the valviceps of a penis valve is various but never rectangular in Phymatocera (Figs 13L, 14M, 16K, 18O; figs 199, 201 in Smith 1969; fig. 97- 9 in Lacourt 2020), but it is rectangular in Paracharactus (figs 203, 205 in Smith 1969). In females, there is no difference between these genera. However, the Phymatocera aterrima group has a genal-orbital pit, but Paracharactus does not. The Phymatocera fumipennis group is distinguished from Paracharactus by the characters stated by Goulet (1992). In this group, the dorsal membranous area of the abdominal segment 1 is large and bell-shaped or triangular (Figs 17E, 18G; fig. 273 in Goulet 1992) and the length of the plantar lobe of the female hind tarsomere 1 is about 1/3 the distance between the plantar lobes of the hind tarsomeres 1 and 2, but in Paracharactus, this membranous area is small and inverted funnel-shaped (fig. 274 in Goulet 1992) and the length of the plantar lobe of the female hind tarsomere 1 is about 2/3 the distance between the plantar lobes of the hind tarsomeres 1 and 2. Goulet (1992) also distinguished Nearctic Phymatocera and Paracharactus by the clarity of the division of a katepimeron. However, in our material, it is often difficult to determine whether the division of a katepimeron is clear or unclear, and many species show considerable variability in the clarity of the division.</p><p>Phymatocera is distinguished from Phymatoceriola by the characters in the key below and the lancet. The lancet is straight or sinuate, with simple ctenidial setae in the former (Figs 2L, 13G, I, 14F, H, 16F, H, 18I, J), but it is gently curved, with basally-thickened ctenidial setae in the latter (Hara et al. 2024, figs 4H–J, 5J–L, 6L–N).</p><p>The only distinguishing character of Phymatocera from Rhadinoceraea and Veratra is the presence of an epicnemium. In Phymatocera, the anterodorsal part of the mesopleuron is raised, separated from the mesepisternum by a groove, and differentiates into an epicnemium (Figs 2B, D, 4G), but in Rhadinoceraea and Veratra, the anterodorsal part of the mesopleuron is not raised at all and lacks a groove anterodorsally, similar to Fig. 4H. However, the distinctness of an epicnemium is variable within Phymatocera . Phymatocera fuscata has the epicnemium slightly raised and separated by an indistinct epicnemial groove (Fig. 10C). The indistinctness of the epicnemium is probably one of the reasons why Togashi (1984) placed P. fuscata in Rhadinoceraea . The P. aterrima group is distinguished from Rhadinoceraea by the long flagellar setae in the male and from Veratra by the presence of a genal-orbital pit. The P. fumipennis group is distinguished from Rhadinoceraea by the lack of a genal-orbital pit and from Veratra by the tarsal claws with an inner tooth. We transfer two Chinese species, Phymatocera foveata Wei, 1998 and Phymatocera sinica Wei, 2002, to Rhadinoceraea, because they do not have an epicnemium and their male flagellar setae are short. For more details, see the section for these two species below.</p><p>Phymatocera is morphologically quite diverse, and no characters suggesting its monophyly have been found. On the other hand, the P. aterrima group is more similar to Phymatoceriola and Rhadinoceraea than to the P. fumipennis group in having a genal-orbital pit. The generic classification of Phymatocera and similar genera appears to require reconsideration.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/26267A73FFFEFFA3FF7B9E8CFE26EE80	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Japan: Shikotan Is. (Sundukov 2017a), Rishiri Is. (new record), Hokkaido (Matsumura 1912 as “ Phymatocerus aterrimus ”, Hara et al. 2021, this study), Honshu (Yano 1932 as Phymatocera aterrima, this study), Awaji Is. (Naito et al. 2004), Shikoku (Togashi 1974), Kyushu (Togashi 1972, this study), Tsushima Is (new record). Korea (Lee et al. 2019, this study). Russia: Sakhalin (Haris 2006).</p><p>Shinohara (2014) followed Yoshida (2013) and included Taiwan in the distribution, but as we were unable to find the source, their statements appear to be incorrect.</p><p>This species is common and widely distributed in Japan and neighboring areas, but previous distribution records may have been confused with P. membra and P. satoi sp. nov. Reconfirmation of these records will be necessary.</p><p>Host plant. Asparagaceae: Polygonatum falcatum A.Gray (Okutani 1959, 1967, this study), Polygonatum odoratum (Mill.) Druce (Sasaki 1923, Takeuchi 1949, 1950, Okutani 1959, 1967) (probably P. odoratum (Mill.) Druce var. pluriflorum (Miq.) Ohwi).</p><p>Life history. This sawfly has one generation per year (Sasaki 1923, Okutani 1959, this study). The adults occur from late May to early July in Hokkaido and from middle April to middle May in the lowlands of central Honshu. The female lays several eggs in a vertical line inside the stem (Sasaki 1923, this study). In our rearing experiments, the egg period was 10 days and the larval feeding period was 16 days. The larvae occur in May and June (Sasaki 1923, Okutani 1959, this study). The mature larvae enter into the soil and overwinter (Sasaki 1923, this study).</p><p>Remarks. We have not examined the type specimens of P. nipponica Togashi, 1958 . The male of this species can be safely identified by the distinctive male genitalia figured in the original description (figs 1, 2 in Togashi, 1958). However, the holotype is a female, and from the female characters written in the original description, it is impossible to determine which of the three Japanese species (our P. nipponica and two similar species, P. membra and P. satoi sp. nov.) is the same species as the holotype. The original description includes the figures of the female lancet (figs 6, 7 in Togashi 1958), although it is unclear whether the lancet is that of the holotype. Those figures resemble the lancets of our P. nipponica and P. satoi sp. nov. in having apical marginal sensilla long and funnel-shaped (Figs 14H–J, 16H; apical marginal sensilla of P. membra very short funnel-shaped, Fig. 13I). Our P. nipponica has been widely collected throughout Honshu, including the type locality, Mt. Shiritaka-yama, while P. satoi sp. nov. has only been found in Nagano and Saitama Prefectures in central Honshu. Therefore, we believe our identification of P. nipponica is correct.</p><p>This species is distinguished from the other nine species of the P. aterrima group mainly by the following characters: Lateral ridge of frontal area indistinct or slightly developed (Fig. 12B); setae on flagellum longer than 1/2 middle width of flagellum 1 in female (Fig. 9H), very long and about as long as 1.5 × that width in male (Fig. 9K); epicnemium entirely glabrous (Figs 2B, 4G), rarely with setae in middle; in hind tarsus, length of plantar lobe of tarsomere 1 about 0.4–0.6 × distance between plantar lobes of tarsomeres 1 and 2 in female; tarsal claws with inner tooth large and distance between apices of apical and inner teeth shorter than depth of concavity between these teeth (Fig. 14D); fore wing with cell 2Rs much longer than cells 1R1 and 1Rs combined in posterior length (Fig. 11A); junction of vein Rs and crossvein 2r-rs distinctly proximally distant from junction of vein Rs and crossvein3rm; dorsum of abdomen distinctly or slightly shiny at least in basal few terga (Figs 12E, F, 14A, C); valvula 3 in lateral view with dorsal margin almost straight (Fig. 14E); lancet almost straight, with 19–22 annuli (Fig. 14F); basal two or three annuli with ctenidia reduced; marginal sensilla of middle annuli funnel-shaped and extending to near serrulae (Fig. 11F); basal sclerites of parapenises combined tapering with acute apex and glabrous (Figs 11C, 14L); penis valve with valviceps about as long as valvura, roundly convex on dorsal edge and straight on ventral edge (Fig. 14M).</p><p>Togashi (1958) stated that this species may be easily separated from P. aterrima by the form of the male genitalia and ovipositor sheath, but there is no clear difference between the ovipositor sheaths of the two species in our material.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/26267A73FFF3FFB6FF7B9EB0FEBEE81C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Lancet sinuate, with 15–16 annuli (Fig. 18I, L); ctenidia ventrally narrowing, not reaching to ventral edge of lancet (Fig. 18J); serrulae angularly convex, each with posterior slope slightly longer than anterior slope, without tubercle; middle serrulae each with 6–9 denticles on anterior slope and 9–13 denticles on posterior slope, although denticles on apex sometimes inconspicuous probably due to wear; marginal sensilla each with apex located at apex of serrula. Male genitalia (Fig. 18M, N) with parapenis well developed, entirely sclerotized, and apically widely rounded. In penis valve (Fig. 18O), valviceps about as long as valvura, with dorsal edge markedly roundly convex on apical half, apex widely rounded, and ventral edge basally rounded.</p><p>Material examined. Type material of Neotomostethus peregrinator Malaise, 1931: Lectotype (here designated): ♀, with five labels, “Hakodate Japan Malaise ”, “Typus”, “ Neotomostethus peregrinator n. sp. Typus Malaise det”, “NRM Sthlm Loan 547/10” and “NHRS-HEVA000019819” (Figs 1B, C, 2A, 10B, 18A, B) (NHRS). --- Paralectotype: 1♀, with five labels, “KAMTSCHATKA Malaise”, “ Paratypus ”, “ Neotomostethus peregrinator n. sp. Paratypus Malaise det”, “NRM Sthlm Loan 548/10” and “NHRS-HEVA000019818” (Fig. 18G) (NHRS). Malaise (1931a) described this species from three females collected by the author, one near “Petropawlowsk, Kamtchatca” and two near “Hakodate in Japan ”. Only the above two types are now kept in the Swedish Museum of Natural History. Malaise (1931a) did not designate the holotype, although the two types are differently labelled “Typus” and “ Paratypus ”. We designate the type from Hakodate labelled “Typus” as the lectotype.</p><p>Type material of Phymatocera hokkaidonis Togashi, 2004: Holotype: ♀, with three labels, “Izumisawa Chitose 15/V, 1993 Y.NISHIJIMA”, “ Holotype Phymatocera hokkaidonis sp. nov. ” and “NSMT-HYM 62242” (Figs 9F, 18C) (NSMT). --- Paratype: 1♀, with three labels, “Izumisawa Chitose 15/V, 1993 Y.NISHIJIMA”, “ Paratype Phymatocera hokkaidonis sp. nov. ” and “NSMT-HYM 38096”; 1♀, with same data label but “2/VI, 1993” and “NSMT-HYM 62243” (Figs 7B, 9A, 10G, 18E, I–L) (NSMT).</p><p>Other material examined: JAPAN: HOKKAIDO: 1♀, Shikaoi, lake Shikaribetsu-ko, 800 m alt., 22–23.

IV. 2007, A. Shinohara (NSMT) .</p><p>Distribution. Russia: Kamchatka (Malaise 1931a). Japan: Hokkaido (Malaise 1931a, Togashi 2004), Honshu (new record).</p><p>The original description states the localities of the type specimens as Kamchatka and near “Hakodate in Japan ”, the latter of which is undoubtedly a city in Hokkaido. However, Abe &amp; Togashi (1989) listed only “[Honshu (in Japanese)]” as the distribution of this species. This is incorrect, and we have been unable to find any records from Honshu based on evidence (such as specimen data). Probably due to their mistake, Lelej (2012), Sundukov (2017b) and Naito (2019, 2020) included Honshu in addition to Kamchatka and Hokkaido in the distribution of this species. In this study, this species is recorded from Honshu for the first time.</p><p>Host plant. Unknown.</p><p>Life history. Adults were collected during early May and early July in Hokkaido.</p><p>Remarks. This species is distinguished from the other East Palearctic species of the P. fumipennis group, P. fuscata comb. nov., by the characters given in the key and the remarks in the latter species section.</p><p>This species quite agrees with the descriptions of Nearctic P. similata by Smith (1969) and Goulet (1981). However, the former differs from the latter by having the apical tooth of the tarsal claw sharply curved (Fig. 18E, F) and the lancet with ctenidial setae becoming shorter and less distinct ventrally and serrulae shallower (Fig. 18J). The latter species has the apical tooth of the tarsal claw gently curved (Smith 1969, Goulet 1981) and the lancet with ctenidial setae long and distinct throughout and serrulae deeper (fig. 144 in Smith 1969).</p><p>Togashi (2004) wrote, “post-genal carina distinct below eye” in the original description of Phymatocera hokkaidonis, but the holotype and two paratypes has the posterior edge of the gena not carinate.</p><p>Generic positions of Phymatocera foveata Wei, 1998 and Phymatocera sinica Wei, 2002</p><p>According to the original descriptions of Phymatocera foveata Wei, 1998 and Phymatocera sinica Wei, 2002 (Nie &amp; Wei 1998, Wei, 2002), those species lack an epicnemium and have a membranous-bottom pit in the genal orbit and short setae on the male flagellum. Phymatocera has an epicnemium and does not have the combination of two characters, a genal-orbital pit and short male flagellar setae. The genus that has the combination of the three characters seen in those two species is Rhadinoceraea Konow, 1886 (see Smith 1969, Zhelochovtsev &amp; Zinovjev 1988). Therefore, these two species should be transferred to Rhadinoceraea .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/26267A73FFEAFFBFFF7B9E8CFC77ED4C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
