sanaii Hoshina, 2008

Cercyon sanaii Hoshina, 2008: 2 . – Japan, Honshu, Fukui Prefecture, Fukui City, Ichijô-daki.

Distribution. Japan (Honshu).

Note. The species is not placed in any subgenus in the original description. It is compared with C. vagus Sharp, 1884 (currently placed in the subgenus Conocercyon ; RYNDEVICH 2007b) and C. shinanensis Nakane, 1965 (currently placed in Cercyon s. str.). The subgeneric placement remains therefore unclear, but the morphology of the metaventrite drawn in the original description allows the possibility that it may be placed into the subgenus Conocercyon as well (compare Fig. 7 in HOSHINA (2008) with Fig. 10 in RYNDEVICH (2006b)).
