Anoplophora multimaculata Lin & Lingafelter 2018, comb. nov.

Description

Anoplophora multimaculata (Xie & Wang, 2015) comb. nov.

Mimonemophas multimaculatus Xie & Wang, 2015 In: Xie et al., 2015: 599, figs. 5–6, 10–14. TL: China, Hubei. TD: YU.

Distribution. China: Hubei.

Remarks. Mimonemophas multimaculatus Xie & Wang is transferred to Anoplophora (new combination) since Mimonemophas was synonymized with Anoplophora by Bi & N. Ohbayashi (2015). The presence of dense bristle-like setae on the non-pubescent area of elytra in Mimonemophas is not a generic feature that distinguishes it from Anoplophora sensu Lingafelter & Hoebeke (2002) (Bi & N. Ohbayashi, 2015). The ending of the specific epithet should be “a” instead of “us” in the genus Anoplophora, because it is feminine in gender.
