Genus Eumantispa Okamoto
Eumantispa Okamoto, 1910 . Type species: Mаntispа suzukii Okamoto, 1910 (as " Mаntispа suzukii Mats. [sic]") (= Mаntispа hаrmаndi Navás, 1909 [" 1908–1909 "]), by original designation. Stenispа Navás, 1914a . Type species: Eumаntispа hypogаstricа Navás, 1914a, by monotypy. A junior homonym of Stenispа Baly, 1858 (Insecta: Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).
Distribution: Palearctic, Oriental, and Australasian: Far eastern USSR, Japan, northeastern India to New Guinea.
Diagnosis (Fig. 7): Eumantispa can be distinguished from all other Oriental and Palearctic genera by the subdivision of the radial cells (Fig. 7a and b). To our knowledge this feature is not found in any other mantispine genus.
Notes: The Eumantispa of China were reviewed by Yang & Liu (2010). A new species, E. pseudoharmandi,
was described. The figures of the newly described species erroneously refer to E. paraharmandi and was corrected in a subsequent publication (Yang & Liu 2011). E. pseudoharmandi is regarded as the correct name. The species resembles quite a number of unidentified specimens found in the collections from the various museums from outside China. It is therefore possible that E. pseudoharmandi is a synonym of a species already described and should be investigated (see Appendix). Eumantispa harmandi has been associated with several species of Agelenidae spiders and one Sparassidae species (Hirata & Ishii 1995). The first instar larvae are known to board spiders; they attach to the carapace of the spider (Hirata & Ishii 1995; Hirata 1999).
