Distribution

Japan ( Parenti 1983), Taiwan ( Sugisima 2005a).

Remarks

Elachista amamii is illustrated by Parenti (1983) and Sugisima (2005a). It belongs to the Elachista praelineata species group as defined by Kaila (1999b). It is similar to E. brachyplectra Meyrick, 1921 , which has a more southern distribution ( Sri Lanka, Indonesia). Elachista amamii can be separated from it by the absence of the digitate process in E. brachyplectra ( Sruoga 2005) .
