Comments

With the re-identification of the specimens collected and reported by Bui & Eguchi (2003) in Lào Cai Province of Vietnam as S. rongi sp. nov., Vietnam is likely no longer part of the native range of S. japonica . If there are other specimens collected from Vietnam that have previously been identified as S. japonica , it is recommended to re-examine them to check if they are S. rongi instead.
