Cheiloneurus claviger Thomson, 1876 View in CoL

Cheiloneurus japonicus Ashmead, 1904 View in CoL , syn. nov.

Material examined. 2 ♀♀, Matsuyama, ex Pulvinaria idesiae , 20.v.1961, T. Tachikawa lgt. & det. ( ELKU).

Distribution. Japan: Shikoku ( TACHIKAWA 1963a). Palaearctic ( NOYES 2016).

Comments. We have examined specimens of Cheiloneurus claviger from a number of different localities and it is apparent that the coloration of the funicule segments varies widely, especially F 4 and F 5. This opinion is supported by SUGONJAEV (1962), TACHIKAWA (1963) and TRJAPITZIN (1989). As Cheiloneurus claviger is a widely distributed and variable species we have no hesitation in treating C. japonicus as a junior synonym of C. claviger .
