Remark.

The date on the collecting label of the holotype is 9.VI.1976, but the collecting date quoted in the original description is 16.V.1978. However, the habitus of the holotype matches the figure in the original description. Probably, Miyake caused a typographical error when writing the description.

In addition to the paratypes mentioned above, the following specimens labeled as paratypes are not designated in the original description: 3 exs. ' [Taiwan] / Baibara, mt.
