Domene (Macromene) curtipennis Sharp, 1889

Domene curtipennis Sharp, 1889: 261.

Comment.

The sole record of Domene curtipennis from China is that by Li (1992) from Liaoning. It is almost certainly based on a misidentification. Based on available evidence, the distribution of Domene curtipennis is restricted to Japan. All the examined material from the Russian Far East, South Korea and China belongs to Domene chenpengi, suggesting that Domene curtipennis does not occur in China.
