Remarks

Systematics: Slide-mounted adult female with 4-segmented antennae (Tang & Hao, 1995). According to Tang & Hao (1995) adult female in the key have 4 segmented antennae. However on their drawing there are only 3, but in the drawing by Tang (1977) there are four segments drawn. On the drawing of Wang (1982a), the antennae is also shown as 3 segmented. The antennal segment number was 3 in slides which we examined. It is thought that there might be some cryptic species covered under this name or there might be big individual variation among the populations. (Kozár, et al., 2013)
Structure: Female oval. Antennae 3 segmented. Eyes situated on venter near margin. Anal lobes slightly developed, with two enlarged setae one larger, other spinelike, smaller than dorsal setae. (Kozár, et al., 2013)
Biology: Specimens were collected in Nagasaki customs on a plant from China (Kuwana & Muramatsu, 1931a).
General Remarks: Most detailed description and illustration by Kuwana & Muramatsu (1931a).
