Bembidion (Politophanes) yoshidai Morita, 2009 comb. nov.

Bembidion (Peryphus) yoshidai Morita, 2009

Notes.

Morita (2009a) described Bembidion yoshidai from SW Japan and in a note reported that the species is closely related to Bembidion trajectum Netolitzky, 1939 (currently listed as Politophanes); slightly later, Morita himself (2009b) followed Toledano (2008, 2009) and assigned the species to the subgenus Bembidion Ocydromus Clairville, 1806 s. l. Based on the aedeagal characters reported by Müller-Morzfeld (1998) and Schmidt (2018), Bembidion yoshidai must also be transferred to Politophanes .
