ofJapan.
Microichthyuruspennatus(L:L>H,1895)hasbeenknowntooccurinthemainland
of Japan other than Hokkaido. Although it has the characteristic appearance with a
slenderbody,largeeyesandveryabbreviatedelytra,itsdistributionalrecordshavebeen
less accumulated to our knowledge at present. Recently, we had an opportunity to
examine a series of Japanese Microichthyurus specimens deposited in the collections of
Ehime and Kyushu Universities, and then the collecting data of M. pennatus are given
belowasitsadditionaldistributional records. The specimens recorded in the following
section are preserved in the Ehime University Museum, Ehime University, Matsuyama
(EUM); Entomological Laboratory, Kyushu University, Fukuoka (ELKU); Omogo
MountainMuseum,Kumakˆogen(OMM);andthecollectionofN.T6@6=6H=>(NTC).
We wish to express our gratitude to Prof. O. T696J8=> (ELKU) and Dr. H.
YDH=>IDB>(EUM)forloanofmaterialdepositedintheirinstitutes. N.T.alsothanks
Messrs.Y.H><6H=>JG6(Yamaguchi)andR.M6IHJBDID (Osaka Museum of Natu-
