Callistethus isidai Miyake, 1987: 5-6.

Note.

The holotype and the following paratype are deposited in RIEB (ex coll. Y. Miyake):

Holotype

(♂). ' [Taiwan] / Lishan to Pilu / 31-VII-1972 / Y. Miyake leg. // Holotype: / Callistethus isidai / Y. MYAKE, 1987'. (Fig. 1F )

Paratype.

1 ex.: ' [Taiwan] / Lishan to Pilu / 31-VII-1972 / Y. Miyake leg. // Paratype / Callistethus isidia / Y. MIYAKE, 1987'.

Type condition.

The right and left metatarsi of the holotype are missing.

Current status.

Callistethus plagiicollis isidai Miyake, 1987, see Zorn and Bezděk (2016).

Remark.

The habitus photograph in the original description does not agree with the holotype. This is also the case with some other species described by Miyake. Apparently, he did not intend to provide the photographs of the holotypes. Also, as noted below, we were unable to trace some specimens illustrated in the original descriptions.
