Nessorhamphus danae Schmidt, 1931:487 View in CoL , fig.4 (type locality: Indian Ocean, W of Sumatra).

Voucher specimen: USNM 436661.

Remarks. This is a new record for the family and genus in Taiwan and is based on a single metamorphic larva from Dong-gang, SW Taiwan. It is tentatively identified as N. danae based on the position of the last vertical blood vessel (LVBV, or renal artery), at approximately myomere 65–71, which is within the range given for this species by Karmovskaya (1985). The comparable count in N. ingolfianus , the only other species in the genus, is 72–78.
