in some local samples (collected in or imported from the areas concerned) of Aulacaspis

‘Hong Kong 1992’: Sun Chui Estate. ‘Taiwan 1’ & ‘Taiwan 2’: R. Bailey leg. ‘Taiwan 3’:
intercepted in quarantine in Japan. ‘Taiwan 1’ includes two individuals apparently abnormal
in having much fewer macroducts and disc pores; they, however, are not excluded from the
sample. ‘Taiwan 2’ and ‘Taiwan 3’, largely overlapping in their ranges, are united into ‘Taiwan
2+3’.‘Amami-Ôsima, 2022’: Nov. 21, Naze, Amami City, D. Uchiyama leg.
