Eugahania latiscapus ( Ishii, 1925) View in CoL

Chalcaspis latiscapus Ishii, 1925: 27 View in CoL .

Eugahania latiscapus (Ishii) View in CoL : MERCET (1926): 46 (new combination).

Eugahania ishiharai Tachikawa, 1956: 164 View in CoL . Synonymised with Eugahania latiscapus View in CoL by SHARKOV (1984: 820).

Type material examined. Chalcaspis latiscapus : HOLOTYPE: ♀, fore wing on slide: (No. 8), Nagasaki, swept, 16.x.1921, T. Ishii lgt. ( NIAES). Eugahania ishiharai : HOLOTYPE: ♀, one fore wing as separate slide: Honshu, Hiroshima city, swept, 27.x.1954, T. Ishihara lgt. ( ELKU).

Distribution. Japan: Kyushu ( ISHII 1925). Oriental, Russia ( NOYES 2016).

Coments. HAYAT & KHANNA (1977) stated that the holotype of C. latiscapus was lost during the World War II and this was subsequently followed by SHARKOV (1984). However, we found a slide-mounted fore wing of the holotype in Ishii’s collection. We think that the suggestion by HAYAT & KHANNA (1977) that the holotype was female is correct.
