Abstract

The fujiyamai species group is formed for two East Asian species of the genus Plagiophorus Motschulsky, P. fujiyamai (Kubota) from Japan, South Korea, and China (Beijing) and P. subcorticarissp. nov. from Taiwan. The fujiyamai group is unique in that the antennal club is not excavated in the male and antennomere III has two distinct sutures. A key to the species of the fujiyamai group is given.

Résumé

Le groupe de fujiyamai comprend deux espèces est-asiatiques du genre Plagiophorus Motschulsky, P. fujiyamai (Kubota) du Japon, de la Corée du Sud et de la Chine (Beijing) et P. subcorticarissp. nov. de Taiwan. Le groupe de fujiyamai se reconnaît par les caractères distinctifs suivants: la massue de l'antenne n'est pas encochée chez le mâle et l'antennomère III possède deux sutures distinctes. Un clé permet de reconnaître les espèces du groupe de fujiyamai.
