Diagnosis. Males of H. howei can be separated from other Hermerius species by the entire dorsum, including head, pronotum and elytra completely covered with relatively long golden hairs. Female of this species can be separated to other Hermerius species by the pronotum with moderately smooth area medially, the posterior angles blunt and the prosternum relatively glabrous.
Types. Arimaspes howei Thomson , Holotype male deposited in MNHN, with the following labels “ Arimaspes Thoms. , s.c.301, n.pr.| howei Thoms. Type 302, Lord Howe’s Is. | Th. TYPE”.

Remarks. As discussed above under the Agrianome we believe that the type locality of Arimaspes howei Thomson (1864) was wrongly recorded and the specimens were collected in the mainland Australia. Based our material and continuous observations conducted by Australian Museum (C. Reid, pers. comm.) on Lord Howe Island Agrianome howei and Howea angulata were only two Prioninae species taken from the Island.
