Antonina crawi Cockerell View in CoL

Antonina crawi Cockerell, 1900: 70 View in CoL ; Ferris, 1921: 211; Williams & Miller, 2002: 897.

Distribution. Guangdong.

Host plant. Phyllostachys nigra (Poaceae) .

Remarks. Although this species was reported previously to be widespread in China ( Tang, 1992; Wang, 2001; Wu, 2001), Williams and Miller (2002) only recorded it from Guangzhou city, Guangdong province. Specimens identified as A. crawi by Tang (1977), collected from Beijing, have been found to be a misidentification of A. socialis , and it is likely that the records from Hunan Province ( Hu et al., 1992) are also a misidentification of A. socialis . The specimens identified by Wu (2001) as A. crawi are a misidentification of either A. nakaharai Williams & Miller or A. socialis Newstead.
