Distribution. Japan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu), Taiwan, India, Korea?.

Remarks. This species is the only member of the kiuhabona group in Japan, and this is the first record of it from Japan.

Netelia kiuhabona View in CoL was described from Taiwan, and later recorded from India ( Kaur & Jonathan, 1979) and Korea ( Cha & Lee, 1988). However, judging from the figure of male genitalia for kiuhabona View in CoL in Cha & Lee (1988), at least the figured specimen is not kiuhabona View in CoL because the apex of the parmere is obliquely truncate ventrally and the strip of minutely papillate cuticle on the median surface of the paramere is present in the figured specimen. Thus, the occurrence of kiuhabona View in CoL in Korea needs to be confirmed.
