Phytocoris minakatai Yasunaga & Schwartz, 2015: 39 (sp. nov.); Yasunaga, 2016: 46 (diag., distr.).

A, P. goryeonus . B, P. intricatus . C, P. longipennis . D, P. minakatai . E, P. ohataensis . F, P. pallidicollis . G, P. shabliovskii .

Diagnosis. Recognized by its moderate size; mottled dark-brown dorsum (Figs. 4 B–C); labium short, slightly over metacoxa. In Korea, P. ohataensis is externally very similar to this species, but the latter can be distinguished from the former by the antennal segment III shorter than basal width of pronotum, more elongated lobal sclerite (Fig. 11), oblong, medially adjacent sclerotized rings of female genitalia (Fig. 13). For more diagnostic character, figures and description, see Yasunaga & Schwartz (2015).

Distribution. Japan, Korea.

Host plant. Pinus densiflora Sieb. & Zucc (Pinaceae) (Yasunaga & Schwartz, 2015).
