7. Metaphire ryunome Blakemore, 2012

Material. IV 0000261294 (DNA HY2) from Jungang Park, Busan by RJB 26 th April, 2013.

Distribution. Japan (Lake Biwa, Shiga-ken), Busan, Korea and “ China ” where it seems misidentified as “ Amynthas incongruous ”. Thus possibly widespread of unknown origin.

Description. Provided by Blakemore (2012: 145, fig. 10; 2013: 311, fig. 4B).

Remarks. Blast results gave 99% “ Amynthas incongruous ” (Genbank EF077551 View Materials - a misidentification from China). Comparing HY2 vs. M. ryunome Holotype from Hikone, Japan (Tokyo An-457, JET108) results: Id.= 653/653 (100%), i.e., same taxon. Its wide distribution allows concession to yield to an as yet unknown species originating from Asia. Note: These latter data were not shown in Blakemore (2013b: 129, fig. 1 phylotree).
