Nipponogelasma Inoue, 1946 ("syn. nov.") Aoshakuna lucia (Thierry-Mieg, 1916) ("comb. nov.") Aoshakuna sachalinensis Matsumura, 1925 ("syn. nov.") Aoshakuna lucia ussurica Beljaev, 2007 ("ssp. nov.") Notes One new subspecies was described ( Beljaev 2007 ). Aoshakuna was previously a junior synonym of Chlorissa Stephens, but was re-instated by Beljaev (2007) . In the same revision, Beljaev (2007) subsequently designated Nipponogelasma a junior synonym of Aoshakuna. As a result of this synonymy, Nipponogelasma lucia was transferred to Aoshakuna , creating the new combination A. lucia . Beljaev (2007) then synonymised this species with A. sachalinensis , the type species of Aoshakuna .
