Remarks
- Systematics: Subfamily DIASPIDINAE Tribe DIASPIDINI Subtribe FIORINIINA (Normark, et al., 2019)
Takagi (1970) treats Kuwanaspis as a genus incertae sedis. He stated Kuwanaspis is close to Nikkoaspis and also to Unachionaspis, presumably forming together with the latter two a peculiar phylogenetic stock. Kuwanaspis and Nikkoaspis are so close that Takahashi united them into a single genus. It is not easy to come to a definite conclusion concerning the distinctness of Nikkoaspis until various forms of the two genera have been compared in detail. However, Nikkoaspis seems to be boreo-montane in distribution, whereas Kuwanaspis occurs in a wide range from tropical lowlands to the temperate region. This trait in distribution, together with the peculiar body shape and numerous dorsal macroducts, may afford a basis to accept Nikkoaspis as valid. Also, the genus Kuwanaspis may belong to the Diaspidini, but deviates from the main stock of the tribe by having plate-like processes on the pygidial margin and by lacking differentiated marginal macroducts.
Normark, et al., 2019 determined that Kuwanaspis is not a monophyletic genus.
- Structure: Adult female elongate, fusiform to parallel-sided, slender, and membranous. Pygidium rounded. Median lobes well separated and sclerotized, not zygotic. Second lobes well developed, deeply bilobed, sometimes tooth-like; with 2 plates present between median lobes. Gland spines well developed, usually single, absent from between median lobes. Anus circular, situated in anterior quarter to third of pygidium. Dorsal marginal macroducts same size as submarginal and submedian ducts. Perivulvar pores absent or present in 5 groups.
