M e g a c a r a To w n e s, 1 9 7 0: 1 0 2. Ty p e s p e c i e s: Phygadeuon lucens Provancher, 1874 . Original designation.

In this study, I newly record Meg. similis Sheng, 1999 from Japan. This is the first record of this genus from Japan. In addition, I recognize at least two undetermined species from Japan. The taxonomic treatment of these species requires the additional specimens and comparison with other species.
