Distribution. Russia (Tomskaja Oblast’, Khabarovskij Kraj, Primorskij Kraj), North and South Korea, China ( Jilin).

Host plant. Unknown.

Remarks. The specimens recorded from Zhejiang Province, China, as O. armata by Shinohara & Xiao (2006) belong to O. atra Shinohara & Wei, 2016 ( Shinohara & Wei 2016). In China, O. armata has been found only in the northeastern part ( Jilin).

Morphologically, this species closely resembles O. kumamotonis particularly in having a comparatively long flagellomere 1 and a similar structure of the male clypeus. Shinohara (2002b) placed these two species in his O kumamotonis complex of the O. luteicornis subgroup of the O. luteicornis group. This placement was supported by our NaK analysis, where the nearest neighbour of O. armata , diverging by a minimum of only 0.2%, was O. kumamotonis , and O. armata and O. kumamotonis formed a clade with 100% UFBoot support ( Fig. 153 View FIGURE 153 ). However, in the COI analysis, the nearest neighbour, diverging by a minimum of 2.6%, was O. viriditibialis , with which O. armata formed a clade with 100% UFBoot support ( Fig. 138 View FIGURE 138 ). The maximum p -distance between three specimens of O. armata from Primorskij Kraj was 0.6% in COI and 0% in NaK.

It is interesting that the known distributions of O. armata and O. kumamotonis do not overlap. Onycholyda armata is a continental species and O. kumamotonis occurs only in Japan and Sakhalin.
