Current status.
Valid species.
Remarks.
The species was originally described in
Taiwania
Spaeth, 1913
which was, however, at that time already considered as a subgenus of
Cassida
Linnaeus, 1758
and the name became secondary junior homonym of
C. spaethi
Weise, 1900
.
Gressitt (1945)
proposed a new substitute name to replace his
C. spaethi
. The
paratype
specimen is also deposited in LNHM.
