Remarks. This large-bodied species (adults reaching 2.12–2.21 mm of body length) inhabits the SW islands of the Ryukyus, Iriomote-jima and Ishigaki-jima, where it can be collected in lowland forests by sifting leaf litter in moist places. The aedeagus of S. totoro is similar to that of S. totoroides and S. bifurcatus, but the lateral endophallic sclerites projecting from the ostium are branched (Fig. 12); see Remarks for the latter species.
