Abstract

Thirteen species of the genus Leucophenga were found from Iriomote Jima of Ryukyu Islands, Japan, including three new records and three new species: L. argentata (de Meijere), L. confluens Duda, L. digmasoma Lin et Wheeler, L. concilia Okada, L. maculata (Dufour), L. meijerei Duda, L. ornata Wheeler, L. orientalis Lin et Wheeler, L. regina Malloch, L. umbratula Duda, L. iriomotensissp. nov., L. multipunctatasp. nov., and L. obscurasp. nov.Leuco phenga regina is redescribed and the three new species are described. A key to all species from Iriomote Jima is provided.

Résumé

Treize espèces du genre Leucophenga ont été trouvées dans l'Iriomote Jima, dans les îles de Ryuku au Japon, dont trois nouvelles citations et trois nouvelles espèces: L. argentata (de Meijere), L. confluens Duda, L. digmasoma Lin et Wheeler, L. concilia Okada, L. maculata (Dufour), L. meijerei Duda, L. ornata Wheeler, L. orientalis Lin et Wheeler, L. regina Malloch, L. umbratula Duda, L. iriomotensissp. nov., L. mutipunctatasp. nov. et L. obscurasp. nov. Nos donnons une nouvelle description de L. regina et des descriptions des trois nouvelles espèces. Une clé d'identification permettra de reconnaître les espèces de Leucophenga d'Iriomote Jima.
