Diagnosis. See Peng et al. (2020).

Material examined. CHINA: 1♀, Anhou, Fujian Tianbaoyan National Natural Reserve, Sanming City , Fujian Province, 14 June 2021, 1160m, Malaise trap, DNA 927 ( FAFU) .

Distribution. China ( Fujian, Hunan, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Taiwan), Japan, South Korea.

Remarks. We examined additional females of this species and found that the mesoscutum, mesoscutellum and axilla do not always exhibit strong green-to-blue metallic luster ( cf. Peng et al. 2020 fig. 14E). Like the specimen shown in Fig. 1B View FIGURE 1 , the anterior convex region of the mesoscutal medial lobe lacks metallic luster. In fact, this is the case with most specimens, especially those reared from Dendrolimus spp. ( Lepidoptera : Lasiocampidae ).

DNA barcode. The newly generated DNA barcode is similar to the already published sequences (GenBank: PQ165814- PQ165817, Wang et al. 2024) (0–3.7% p-distance).
