Diagnosis. The color of the general habitus of P. shantungensis is very similar to P. sublimata ( Jacobi, 1916) . However, the genitalia exhibit good diagnostic characters, especially the short dorsal process on phallic complex in male ( Fig. 8D–F, J–L View FIGURE 8 ; Duan & Chen 2020: Pl. IV-39, Pl. V-48), shorter than 1/2 length of phallobase, 450–485 / 915–1235 µm in the present study (vs. longer than 1/2) ( Fig. 8M, D, E View FIGURE 8 , Duan & Chen 2020: Pl. IV-38, Pl. V-46); in female, anal segment is 1.0× length of gonoplac in lateral view (vs. 1.4×) ( Fig. 9A View FIGURE 9 ; Duan & Chen 2020: Pl. VI-53, 54, 68, 69); 0.96–1.19× (1740 / 1460, 1330 / 1350, 1570 / 1620 µm) in the present study. The eastern Asian species P. albomaculata has a similarly white costal spot on brown tegmen ( Fig. 16A–C, E–I View FIGURE 16 ), but differs from P. shantungensis by the lack of the ventral process in male ( Fig. 16K–N View FIGURE 16 ) and anal segment being 0.5× length of gonoplac in lateral view in female ( Fig. 16O View FIGURE 16 ).

Fifth instar nymph of P. shantungensis can be distinguished from that of P. sublimata by the following characters: white mesonotum and wing pads with dark brown patches (vs. uniformly yellowish brown); two pairs of spiny-shaped black spots and dark brown patches on metanotum (vs. no spot and patch) ( Figs. 14 View FIGURE 14 , 15 A, G, I View FIGURE 15 ; Yang 1989: 197–199, fig. 14).

Host plants in Japan. ( Table 3 View TABLE 3 , fig. 2). Aquifoliaceae : Ilex rotunda Thunb. ; Lauraceae : Cinnamomum camphora (L.) J.Presl; Oleaceae : Ligustrum lucidum W.T.Aiton and L. vulgare L., Osmanthus fragrans var. aurantiacus Makino ; Sapindaceae : Acer palmatum Thunb. ; Simaroubaceae : Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle ; Theaceae : Camellia japonica L., C. sasanqua Thunb. ; Ulmaceae : Ulmus parvifolia Jacq. , Zelkova serrata (Thunb.) Makino etc.

Biology ( Figs. 11–14 View FIGURE 11 View FIGURE 12 View FIGURE 13 View FIGURE 14 ). This species has two generations per year in Zhejiang, China ( Li et al. 2006; Shen et al. 2007) and one generation per year in Korea ( Choi et al. 2012, fig. 3 as Ricania sp. ; Baek et al. 2019); overwintering takes place in the egg stage on tree branches, nymphs emerged in April and July, adults in June and September ( Shen et al. 2007). In Europe, the adults were collected in June and around October ( Bourgoin et al. 2020; Stroiński et al. 2022). In Japan, this species has two generations per year and overwinters in the egg stage on tree branches in Osaka Prefecture. The adults were observed in June, July and between September to December. In Sakai, the adults have been observed around agricultural fields and at forest edge in July, September and October from 2015 to 2022 ( Fig. 11A–C View FIGURE 11 ). In Kumamoto, many adults were observed to attract around lights at night. The females laid white eggs in the branches and stems of host plants; the tip of egg masses was covered with white waxy filaments ( Fig. 12A–E View FIGURE 12 ); ca. 2–5 cm in the length; old egg masses lacked the filaments in winter ( Fig. 12F, G View FIGURE 12 ).

Remarks. This species has black tegmina in ground color, covered with a thin white and distinct brown wax layer, but old and/or dried pinned specimen often lack wax layer and look dark ( Fig. 3C, F, H, K View FIGURE 3 ). Emerged adults were at first general white ( Fig. 11H–I View FIGURE 11 ), and become general black which red eyes in coloration ( Fig. 11J, K View FIGURE 11 ), and covered with brown wax layer in three days ( Fig. 11L View FIGURE 11 ). We identified Ricaniidae gen. sp. 1–3 of Yoshitsuru (2023) from Aichi Prefecture as P. shantungensis by the rounded triangular-shaped costal spot on forewing.

In the present study, this species was collected on more than 32 plant families, 61 species, particularly on Ligustrum and Camellia species, and Cinnamomum camphora ( Table 3 View TABLE 3 ). In Osaka Prefecture , the roadside tree, Cinnamomum camphora and the hedge plant, Ligustrum vulgare had the highest density of this species (> 50 adults and egg masses per one collecting); the egg masses were found in particular on Camellia sasanqua and C. japonica trees in winter. Several authors observed egg-laying females or on white waxy filaments of egg mass on several trees, e.g. Fagaceae , Lauraceae , Magnoliaceae , Moraceae ( Shichiri & Sakuma 2022, 94; Miyazaki 2023, 15; Nozawa et al. 2023, 67). In private and public gardens, the species was reported on several host plants (information from the internet), e.g., Celastraceae : Euonymus japonicus ; Fagaceae : Quercus myrsinaefolia ; Rosaceae : Spiraea thunbergii ; Rubiaceae : Gardenia jasminoides ; Sapindaceae : Maple ( Acer ); sometimes with> 10 adults and/or nymphs per shoot or tree.

One female adult was attended by three arboreal ants, Camponotus vitiosus Smith, 1874 ( Formicidae ) in Keihanna Commemorative Park, Kyoto Prefecture ( Fig. 11E View FIGURE 11 ); One of the ants fed on the planthopper excreted honeydew. Another female adult was also attended by a Camponotus ant in Sakai, Osaka Prefecture.
