Notes on types
Plochionus binotatus Dejean: In the collection of MNHN, we found only one specimen (Fig. 31) from the Mariannas, apparently from Dejean’s collection. So this specimen could be the basis for the original description, although the original literature didn’t indicate or imply that the species was based on a single specimen. According to the Zoological Code of Nomenclature (4th Edition), Articles 61, 73 and 74, for taxonomic purpose of fixing the name to unique name-bearing type and preventing further uncertainty, we designate this specimen as the lectotype.
Calleida discophora Chaudoir: The original literature didn’t indicate or imply how many specimens were examined. It can be confirmed that the male (Fig. 32) from Chaudoir’s collection, and bearing Chaudoir’s hand-written label, belongs to the type series. The other three specimens in Chaudoir’s collection do not accord with the original literature, although they are mentioned later (Chaudoir 1877[2]). We herein designate this first specimen as lectotype for taxonomic purpose of fixing the name to unique name-bearing type.
Paraphaea signifera Bates: This species was originally described from an unspecified number of specimens, but both sexes were mentioned, as well as type locality “Satzuma”. In the collection of MNHN, two specimens (one male and one female) from Bates’ collection are perfectly in accord with the original literature. We herein designate the male (Fig. 33) as lectotype for the purpose of providing the name with a unique name-bearing type. Another specimen from Bates’ collection with different locality was labeled as paratype by J. Mateu (not published), but it is neither a paratype nor a syntype and should not be part of the type series. We removed the paratype label.
Anchista eurydera Chaudoir: This species was originally described from a single specimen which head is missing. This male in MNHN (ex. collection of Chaudoir) is clearly the holotype.

Diagnosis
Pronotum glabrous, widest at apical third, lateral margins slightly sinuate before hind angles; elytra with bicolored pattern, dark brown background with a reddish yellow elongate spot on each side (Fig. 1); elytra with two setigerous pores on 3rd interval, and one setigerous pore on base of 5th interval; elytra without any secondary setigerous pores; median lobe of aedeagus with apical third strongly expanded, internal sac with screwed main flagellum (Fig. 67).
The unique pronotal shape, elytral pattern and number of setigerous pores easily distinguish this species from all other allied species.
Description
Male genitalia. Median lobe of aedeagus with apical third strongly expanded; in dorsal view, left-lateral margin strongly sinuate medially, and then gradually narrowed to apex; apical lamella placed on left-ventral side, broadly triangular, apex slightly rounded, not distinctly extended apically; internal sac with main flagellum screwed; basal part of main flagellum strongly bent, so trumpet-form expansion reaching right margin, apical margin of trumpet-form expansion crenulate (Fig. 67). Female genitalia. Spermatheca very long and slender; spermathecal gland inserted near apical one-third of spermatheca, with a short branch near base; spermatheca slightly expanded, with ring-sculpture between the gland insertion and apex, basal part of spermatheca without sculpture; spermatheca strongly bent at apical third (Fig. 126). Apical segment of ovipositor scimitar-shaped, inner margin slightly angulate at apical third; length about four times basal width; inner margin setose in apical half; apex sharp, with membranous extension long and slender (Fig. 111).
Detailed description of external characters has been provided by Habu (1967[13], 1982).
Distribution
(Map 1). China [Jiangxi, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Taiwan (only Orchid Island, by Kanô 1930a[9])]; Japan; Vietnam; Thailand; Cambodia; Myanmar; India; the Philippines; Indonesia; New Guinea (Darlington, 1968); Mariana.
Notes on synonym
Anchista eurydera Chaudoir was described from Indes Orientales which overlaps the range of Paraphaea binotata. The head of the male holotype is missing and its abdomen was badly destroyed by dermestid beetles, so it is impossible to examine its genitalia. Chaudoir (1877)[2] noted that this species is extremely close to Paraphaea binotata, and wrote of some differences between these two species which are correct according to the holotype. But the differences in pronotal shape and elytral pattern should be regarded as mere individual variation, which is ubiquitous in this common and widely-distributed species. The paler color and more distinct yellow stripes on the pronotum are due to immaturity of the holotype. The transverse wrinkles on the pronotum are possibly an artifact caused by abnormal emergence. So we herein synonymize Anchista eurydera Chaudoir with Plochionus binotatus Dejean.
Remarks
In Japan, this species is only recorded in South Kyushu and Satsunan Islands. Kanô’s (1930b)[20] record of Paraphaea binotata from Tokyo is presumably a misidentification of Euplynes batesi Harold (Habu 1967[13]). Kanô (1930a)[9] recorded Paraphaea binotata from Taiwan (Orchid Island). It is probable that this record is also based on a misidentification. Moreover, we have studied a large series of carabid specimens from Taiwan, but didn’t find this species. So, it seems likely that this species is not distributed in Taiwan.
