Ocnerodrilus occidentalis occidentalis Eisen, 1878

Material examined. IV0000245077 collected from Jeju Island by the author (15.II.2012) as reported in Blakemore et al. (2012, fig. 1) providing DNA sample (WM 17 in Appendix ) .

Remarks. Pan-tropical distribution by introduction; the original home is thought to be in Central/South America; it is fully described by Blakemore (2010b). Part of a species-complex ( Gates, 1972), previously noted without details from North Korea by Kobayashi (1941: 263, tab. 1) a record that appears to have been overlooked subsequently due to the old-style kanji used.
