Systematics: The studied specimens have no ovisac band, but do have a vulva surrounded by multilocular pores. For this reason it is considered to be the 3rd stage female rather than an adult female. This species is here included temporarily in Niponorthezia because of the antennal characters and its zoogeographic distribution. Discussion of characters that compare this species with placement in other genera is in Kozár (2004).
General Remarks: Original description and illustration in Kozár (2004).
