gular (Fig. 4), with somewhat convergent lateral margins. Female antenna: Fig 6. Further significant data to key: postscutellum with a transverse row of minute foveae in front. Lateral edges of propodeum hardly arcuate (Fig. 20), lateral teeth acute triangle (right side), left one nearly rectangular. Mesopleuron rugose-punctate, on main part longitudinally somewhat rugosely and very closely striate. T-II-III finely punctured, T-IV with double punctures. Additions to the descriptions: MS 1.3 MOD long. Ped 1.6 times as long as wide, F-I 1.8 x, F-II 1.4 x, F-III 1.3 times as long as wide. - The characteristics of male were given from TSUNEKI'

s description in the key, albeit, I publish here 2 S from Korea. I requested original males from the Osaka Museum several times in vain. The TSUNEKI's description differs from the Korean males in the following details: by the hardly distinct few punctures of mesopleuron, and not as given "Mesopleuron coarsely longitudinally rugose-punctate", by the punctures on T-III-IV remarkably deeper, nearly coarsely double, and not "punctuation similar to $", i.e. "tergites 2 and 3 (of $) finely, closely tergite 4 somewhat more largely and sparsely punctured with finer punctules (sic!) scattered in between", differing by the minute foveae distinctly present between postscutellum and scutellum in the split in males (from Korea), "not foveolate" according to TSUNEKI, by posterior groove of pronotum only with some distinct pits medially, but with irregular and not outlined punctures laterally, "not similar to $", i.e. pronotum with distinct outlined row of pits, by F-I (=3rd joint) 1.6 times and not 2.5 times as long as wide. Some addition to the data of the Korean males: MS 1.2 MOD long. Ped 1.4 times as long as wide, F-I 1.6 x, F-II and F-III 1.1 times as long as wide. I am not sure that these males really represent this species. They may be a subspecies of japonicus TOSAWA. More materials, above all true male specimen(s) are needed for the decision.
