= Leptogomphus formosanus Oguma, 1926

Leptogomphus formosanus Oguma, 1926 , p. 91, “Formosa”, ♀.

Leptogomphus formosanus was originally described by Oguma from a female insect only (lectotype: Kagi, 8. ’23). Chao (1954), giving a description of the male insect, synonymized formosanus Oguma (1926) with sauteri Ris (1912) . But there are some differences between the specimens from southern coastal area and the inland area of Formosa, the former perhaps representing true sauteri Ris.
