Remarks.

According to Yang and Yang (1995), this species was reported in Taiwan. Its frons is rounded as S. minor comb. n. and S. enatus comb. n. . But it is distinct with them in features of tegmen and male genitalia. Its tegmina are rather short, only reaching the third abdominal tergum, and it does not have a mirror. Especially, its genitalia is different from all the species of Stephoblemmus (= Mitius ) (its epiphallic middle lobe is bifurcated, not the typical unique lobe of the genus). Thus, we doubt if this species should be put in Stephoblemmus .
