Material examined: Japan: Shikoku: 4exs., Ehime Pref., Ishizuchi National Park , Omogo , 900 m, 12.VIII.1980, leg. Löbl ( MHNG, cAss) ; 2 exs., Ehime Pref., Ishizuchi National Park , Mt. Ishizuchi , 1550 m, 12.VIII.1980, leg. Löbl ( MHNG, cAss) ; 2 exs., Ehime Pref., Mt. Ishizuchi , 1350 m, 13.VIII.1980, leg. Löbl ( MHNG, cAss) ; 4 exs. [partly teneral], Ehime Pref., Mt. Ishizuchi , 1000 m, 14.VIII.1980, leg. Löbl ( MHNG, cAss) .

Comment: The original description is based on a male holotype and 17 paratypes from "Mt. Ohtakisan, Kagawa Pref. " ( WATANABE 1991). Some of the above specimens are teneral. The similar modifications of the male sternites VII and VIII, as well as the similarly derived morphology of the aedeagus suggest that L. sanukiense is closely related to L. shingon WATANABE 1992 and allied species.
