Euconnus (Euconnus) akane Hoshina

Euconnus akane Hoshina, 2020: 71 .

Euconnus (Euconnus) akane Hoshina; here placed in Euconnus s. str.

Remarks. This species is known to occur in Shikoku, and is similar to E. oscillans . However, the body of E. oscillans is distinctly smaller (BL 1.14–1.20 mm vs. 1.42–1.43 mm in E. akane), it has distinct, remarkable punctures on elytra (inconspicuous in E. nakane), and clearly a different shape and arrangement of endophallic sclerites.

Hoshina (2020) did not place this species in subgenus. Euconnus akane is here placed in Euconnus (s. str.), based on the antennal and pronotal structures, and non-bifurcate apex of the median lobe.
