Acanthocnema sternalis Suwa, 1986 View in CoL

sternalis Suwa, 1986: 14 View in CoL ( Acanthocnema View in CoL ). Type-locality: Mt. Daisetsu ( Japan, Hokkaidô).

vikhrevi Ozerov et Krivosheina, 2014b: 204 View in CoL ( Acanthocnema View in CoL ). Type-locality: Yablonevyy Pass (60.59ºN 151.53ºE) ( Russia, Magadan Oblast) — syn.n.

During the description [ Ozerov, Krivosheina, 2014b] and in the review of the species of the genus Acanthocnema View in CoL of Russia [ Ozerov, Krivosheina, 2018] it was asserted that A. vikhrevi View in CoL is closely related to A. sternalis View in CoL by the structure of male terminalia and distinguished from it by several characters of external morphology. For example A. vikhrevi View in CoL easily differs from A. sternalis View in CoL by the presence of preapical anterodorsal seta on mid tibia. Later I noticed that Suwa paid no attention to this character in other species also [ Suwa, 1986]. Herewith, I consider A. vikhrevi View in CoL as a junior synonym of

A. sternalis .
