TAXONOMIC REMARKS. A detailed description of the structure of O. puziloi is given in Habu (1967). In this regard, we present only a brief description of the nominative subspecies.

aino subsp. n.; 6, 7, 10 – male; 8, 9, 11 – female; 6, 8, 10, 11 – dorsal view; 7, 9 – ventral view.

Head with well-developed temples varying in shape from regularly converging towards neck interception to subparallel, sharply tapering towards neck. Eyes relatively large, length almost equal to that of temples (TEL/OCL ratio, 0.82–1.25, average 1.01).

Head chaetotaxy variable. Lectotype head with only one pair of additional setae, basal to posterior supra-orbital ones. Of 28 specimens studied [1 ex. from the Amurskaya oblast’ and

27 from the Primorskiy krai: Khasansky District (9 ex.), Vladivostok (2), Razdolnaya River basin (5), Lake Khanka (7), Ussuri River valley (4)]; 3 specimens showing an additional left seta between anterior and posterior supra-orbital pores, 1 specimen with a 3rd additional posterior seta on left side, 1 specimen lacking a right additional posterior seta.

– O. puziloi aino subsp. n.; 17–19 – O. hagai ; 12, 18 – pronotum, ventral view; 13, 15, 17 –

left elytra, dorsal view; 14, 16, 19 – 3rd-5th intervals of elytra in basal half of elytra, dorsal view.

Pronotum cylindrical, slightly narrowed towards both anterior and posterior edges, with a well-developed median groove. Its base punctured with large points. Prosternum and proepisterna punctured to varying degrees. Lectotype and paralectotypes with prosternum punctured mainly along edges; only 2–3 points in front of coxae. In individuals from the

Khasansky District, punctures much stronger, points occupying almost entire prosternum.

Elytra relatively narrow (ELW/ELL 0.41–0.51, mean 0.49), slightly dilated in posterior half. Striae usually thin and not reaching the apex of elytra (except for near suture); points on them often very small, reduced to thin strokes. Microsculpture consisting of isodiametric or slightly elongated cells, front edge of which slightly scale-shaped.

Discal pores on intervals of elytra varying considerably in number: in interval 3 from 3 to

6 (usually 3–4, lectotype with 3), in interval 5 from 0 to 2 (usually 0, as in lectotype), in interval 7 from 0 to 2 (more often 1, lectotype with 1 on left elytron, 2 on right one).

– lectotype; 21, 29 – paralectotype); 26, 27, 34, 35 – O. puziloi aino subsp. n.; 20–27 –

aedeagus, 28–35 – left paramere. Scale bars – 0.5 mm. Figures 27 and 35 show measurements scheme.

Aedeagus slightly bent, barely broadened in preputial field area, relatively narrow

(EDW/EDL 0.12–0.15, average 0.14, n=10). Left paramere roundly trapezoidal, elongated

(LPW/LPL 0.39–0.49, average 0.43, n=10).

Body length 5.4–6.7 mm (average 6.2 mm, n=28). Measurements used here (n=34): OCL –

0.40–0.50 (average 0.45), TEL – 0.39–0.51 (average 0.46), HEW – 0.95–1.13 (average 1.05),

PNW – 0.76–0.90 (average 0.84), PNL – 1.03–1.24 (average 1.16), ELW – 1.53–1.95 (average 1.70), ELL – 3.13–3.83 (average 3.46).

DISTRIBUTION. Russia: Zabaykalsky krai (new record), Yakutia (new record), Amurskaya oblast’ (new record), Primorskiy krai and south of Khabarovsky krai (Lafer, 1989);

North Korea (Bousquet, 2017), South Korea (Park et al., 2014), northeastern China (Nakane,

1963). The records from Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu: Habu, 1967, 1982) can apply to this and/or the following subspecies.

BIOLOGY. Lifestyles are similar to those of the Western Palaearctic Odacantha melanura

(Linnaeus, 1767) (Lindroth, 1986). O. puziloi lives along the shores of eutrophied waterbodies with rich vegetation of large graminoids and cattails, adults often being found on partially submerged plants ( Figs 44, 45 ). Flying to light. The last instar larvae were found together with adults on 20–24.VIII 2018. In the laboratory, they pupated, the development time of pupae averaging 7.3 days (n=3).
