Of these, one species of Cephalciahas not been determined and two species of Onycholydaand four species of Pamphilius are newly recorded from Yamanashi Prefecture. Compared with the other well-investigated areas in Honshu, the pamphiliid fauna of Yamanashi Prefecture is very rich, hav- ing the largest number of species in total (the same number as that of Tochigi Prefecture) and in the “northern group” of species.

Pamphilius confusus Shinohara, 2005, P. nakagawai Takeuchi, 1930, and P. venustus (Smith, 1874) were recorded from four areas, but they are not likely to be found in western Honshu because their known host plants are not distrib- uted or rarely found there (Shinohara and Morita, 2003; Shinohara, 2005); therefore, these species are not included in the “basic group”. The “northern group” (lightly shadowed in Table 1) is also redefined here to include the species of the Cephalciinae, the Pamphilius vafer group, and the Pamphilius histrio group, excluding the species included in the “basic group”, and Onycholyda kumamotonis (Matsumura, 1912), which is very similar to Pamphilius venustus, a member of the P. vafer group, in biology and Fig. 1.
