Trunk segments without dark patches; head 1.2–1.4 times as long as wide (Fig. 14 A, B); lateral margin of cephalic plate abruptly converged posteriorly; clypeus with densely scattered setae (Fig. 14 B); paraclypeal suture evidently converging posteriorly (Fig. 14 B); both ends of transverse suture convexed forward (Fig. 14 A); mandible with 5–7 lamellae; forcipular trochanteroprefemur almost as long as wide, with one small distal denticle (Fig. 15 A, B); forcipular tarsungulum with evident and variably spaced notches; metatergite subtrapezoidal (Fig. 16 A); metasternite trapezoidal, longer than wide (Fig. 16 B); forty-one pairs of legs.</p><p>Type locality.</p><p>The first section of the Subashiri trail of Mt.

Dicellophilus latifrons Takakuwa, 1934, which was described in a key to Japanese and Taiwanese species of Mecistocephalidae by Takakuwa (1934 a), was later described by Takakuwa (1934 b, c) as a new species. Takakuwa (1934 a) did not designate a type locality for D. latifrons, and Takakuwa (1934 b, c) listed the localities: “ Kaibara (Hyogo) ” (= Tamba City, Hyogo Pref.), “ Masudo (bei Tokyo) ” (possibly misread of Masuko-mura, currently in Akiruno-shi, Tokyo Pref.), “ Komono (Miye) ” (= Komono-cho, Mie Pref.), “ Ikao (Gumma) ” (= Ikahocho, Shibukawa-shi, Gunma Pref.), “ Ōta (Gumma) ” (= Ota-shi, Gunma Pref.), “ Odawara (Kanagawa) ” and “ Suwa (Nagano) ” (annotated by Jonishi and Nakano 2022). Considering the geographic distribution of D. latifrons and D. pulcher sensu stricto, D. latifrons is a junior synonym of D. pulcher . Dicellophilus japonicus Verhoeff, 1934, was described based on a specimen from “ Tokyo ” (Verhoeff 1934) and later regarded as a junior synonym of D. latifrons based on the comparison of diagnostic characteristics (Takakuwa 1940; Shinohara 1983). Considering the geographic distribution of D. japonicus and D. pulcher and the phylogenetic analyses of the present study, including TS 20181214-01, TS 20191006-02, TS 20210401-03, and TS 20210819-01 from Tokyo Pref., it is not conflicting that D. japonicus is a junior synonym of D. pulcher . Tygarrup monoporus Shinohara, 1961, which is identical to the juvenile of D. pulcher, according to Uliana et al. (2007), was described based on the specimen from Manazuru-machi, Ashigarashimo-gun, Kanagawa Pref. (Shinohara 1961). Considering the geographic distribution of T. monoporus and D. pulcher and the phylogenetic analyses of the present study, including TS 20210728-02, which was collected at a linear distance of approximately 13 km from the type locality and could be identified as T. monoporus, T. monoporus can also be regarded as a junior synonym of D. pulcher .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/FACE8FC162AE53B487E2AB55C607B251	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
