Extract

In a literature search for species of Pterygosoma it has been my good fortune to find a figure and Japanese description of Pterygosoma japonicum Kishida, 1927, in Figuraro de Japanaj, Bestej Tokyo, 1927, Hokurykan and Co. Ltd. This species has not been listed by the Zoological Record, and indeed it seems to have been completely overlooked in the West. Hence this re-publication.
