W. NA K ATIARA : 



M. ja panica is a rather common species in Mondo (the main island 

 of Japan). Also from Kiushiu I have received a series of specimens. It 

 occurs in Korea too. 



The adults are usually found among the ground vegetation in 

 forests in the month of June, sometimes in great abundance ; in July 

 and August they occur in less numbers. 



4. Mantispa fovmosana Matsumura. 



Mantispa (Mantispilla) formosana Mats., Okamoto, Zool. Anz., 

 xxx vii, p. 297-98 (191 1 ). 



This form known from Formosa is not improbably identical with 

 M. hizoncnsis Navas (Mem. Real. Acad. Cien. Art. Barchelona, vii, 

 p. 479, 1909), though perhaps it may be distinguished as a variety of 

 the latter. 



Genus Climaciella Enderlein.
