Bembidion (Politophanes) umeyai Habu, 1959 comb. nov.

Bembidion (Peryphus) umeyai Habu, 1959

Notes.

Habu (1959) describes Bembidion (Peryphus) umeyai from Hokkaido, Japan, reporting that the species is closely related to Bembidion (Peryphus) amurense trajectum Netolitzky, 1939 (currently listed in the subgenus Bembidion Politophanes). Later, the species was listed in Marggi et al. (2003) in two different positions, within the subgenus Bembidion Ocydromus but with the incorrect spelling umeayi (sic!) and within Bembidion "incertae sedis" with the correct name " Bembidion umeyai ". The same mistake, reported to us by our colleague Katsuyuki Terada (Hiroshima), also occurs in Marggi et al. (2017). In Habu’s (1959) original description and in Morita (2001) the illustration of the aedeagus of Bembidion umeyai shows that the species belongs to the subgenus Bembidion Politophanes .
