770EE124FFDC2940FF44FCA569D1FB83.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Both junior and senior homonyms were Taiwanese taxa. John (1956 a) described Aphanocephalus pubescens sauteri based on 4 specimens housed in Senckenberg Deutsches Entomologisches Institut, while John (1971) described “ Aphanocephalus sauteri ” based on holotype and 4 paratypes housed in Museum für Naturkunde Berlin. The former taxon was described as a forma, but it should be treated as a subspecies (ICZN).	en	Yoshitomi, Hiroyuki (2025): An annotated checklist of the family Discolomatidae (Coleoptera: Coccinelloidea) of the world.
