Thoracostrongylus miyakei Bernhauer, 1943: 179; Yang et al. 2011: 428; Hu 2020: 349.

Material examined.

1♀; Taiwan, Taichung Hsien, Anmashan ; alt. 2230 m; 30 April -4 May 1990; A. Smetana leg.; ASC .

Distribution.

China (Sichuan?, Taiwan).

Remarks.

The record for Sichuan reported by Yang et al. (2011) is doubtful: the record was published based on a specimen from Sichuan in coll. NMW. However, such a specimen does not exist, but there is a male (identified as T. miyakei ) from Yunnan that was not mentioned in Yang et al. (2011). Numerous specimens from the mainland of east China have been examined in this paper and none of them is T. miyakei , creating a huge distributional gap between Sichuan and Taiwan. In addition, T. miyakei is a brachypterous species, making its occurrence in mainland China very unlikely. Since no male of that species from Taiwan was available for this paper, the solution to this problem must wait until males from Taiwan can be studied.
