Distribution

(Nakanoshima Is. and Akusekijima Is.), Amami Isls. ( Amami-Ôshima Is., Yorojima Is., Tokunoshima Is. and Okinoerabujima Is.), Okinawa Isls. (Iheyajima Is., Okinawajima Is., Tokashikijima Is., Zamamijima Is., Akajima Is., Gerumajima Is. and Kumejima Is.; Iejima Is. - new record), Miyako Isls. (Miyakojima Is.) and Yaeyama Isls. (Ishigakijima Is., Iriomotejima Is., Kuroshima Is. and Yonagunijima Is.); and Taiwan ( Takai 1991, Ohmomo and Fukutomi 2013, Inada et al. 2015, Sakai 2016a, Sakai 2016b, Hinoki 2018).

Notes

New to Iejima Is., these specimens were collected by visual searching and net-sweeping Elaeocarpus zollingeri ( Elaeocarpaceae ) and Toxicodendron succedaneum ( Anacardiaceae ) (Fig. 3 a, f). Toxicodendron succedaneum is not recorded as a host plant of C. (C.) lewisii , but this species may be associated with the plant at least during the adult stage, because some specimens were collected from it at several places.
