Cacopsylla (Hepatopsylla) fulguralis ; Kwon & Kwon (2020: 150).

Distribution in Korea. GB, GG, GN, JJ, JN ( Park et al 1980 b, as Psylla fulguralis ; Lee & Kwon 1981, as P. fulguralis ; Kwon 1983, as P. (Hepatopsylla) fulguralis ; Anonymous 1994, as P. fulguralis ; Kwon et al. 1996c, as P. fulguralis ; Kwon & Kwon 2020, as Cacopsylla (Hepatopsylla) fulguralis ) (KNA, NAAS, SNU).

Host plant. Elaeagnus glabra Thunb. , E. macrophylla Thunb. (Elaeagnaceae) ( Kwon 1983).

Comments. Kwon & Kwon (2020) synonymised four Chinese species with C. fulguralis which, however, are morphologically close to the Indian C. quadrimaculata ( Mathur, 1975) . We have not examined specimens of the four Chinese species and cannot judge if they are synonymous with C. quadrimaculata . Pending a revision of relevant type material we consider the Chinese taxa as good species: C. cyphospila Li, 2011 , stat. rev., C. fluctimaculata Li, 2005 , stat. rev., C. gossypinmaculosa Li, 2011 , stat. rev., and C. nigrigenimacula Li, 2011 , stat. rev. (misspelt as C. nigrigenimaculata ). Cacopsylla fulguralis (material examined from France, Germany, Korea and Switzerland; KNA, NAAS, NHMB, SNU) differs from C. quadrimaculata (material examined from Nepal; NHMB) in the larger body size, the longer genal processes, the longer antennae and the longer apical process of the female proctiger. Cacopsylla maculiumbellatae ( Li & Yang, 1987) (paratypes examined; MHNG), another close species from China, constitutes a good species. It is slightly larger than C. fulguralis and has shorter genal processes and narrower forewings than C. quadrimaculata .
