Material examined: 1♂, Taiwan, Nantou County, Lianhuachi , 10. VIII. 2010, C. C. Kuo, TFRI160897 ( TFRI) .

Distribution: Taiwan.

Notes. This species was described by Wileman (1915) on the basis of two male syntypes from Kanshirei [Guanziling, Tainan, Taiwan]. Wang (1994) illustrated one syntype. Tóth & Ronkay (2014a: fig. 55) illustrated the female genitalia, but they did not show any evidence of the identification of this species. Subsequently, Tóth & Ronkay (2015b: 254, fig. 6) illustrated the male specimen without abdomen with caption “ Naarda ochronota Wileman male, holotype ”, however this specimen should be syntype rather than holotype. In the same study, they also examined the other syntype (“topotypic male specimen—BM Noct. 21786 ♂ ”).
