Comments. The original description of Gergithoides carinatifrons ( SCHUMACHER 1915) and the images of a hind wing of a syntype (the only part that remains from two syntypes in ZMHB) were compared with the images of the male lectotype of Daruma nitobei Matsumura , which are available on Hokkaido University website ( ANONYMOUS 2008). The species was redescribed by CHAN & YANG (1994, Fig. 5 View Figs ). The synonymization is based on the following features ( Figs. 5–6 View Figs ): metope elongate with strong median keel; coryphe elongate and narrow with acutely angulate anterior margin; fore wings with relief reticulate venation; hind wings almost equal in length to fore wings and with reticulate venation.
