Cheiloneurus phenacocci Trjapitzin, 1964

Material examined. 6 ♀♀, Matsuyama, 14.vi.1954, T. Tachikawa lgt. & det. ( ELKU).

Comments. The above material was incorrectly identified as Ch. phenacocci by TACHIKAWA (1971). The specimens differ from Ch. phenacocci in having all funicle segments longer than wide, the scutellum yellow and the clava shorter than F 2 –F 6. In Ch. phenacocci the funicle segments F 2 –F 3 are almost subquadrate and F 4 slightly longer than width. We therefore removed this species from the list of Japanese encyrtids. The true identity of the specimens remains unresolved.
