Pamphilius pallidus Shinohara, 1988a: 308 ; Zhelochovtsev & Zinovjev, 1995: 398; Shinohara, 2001:114; Shinohara, 2002b: 430; Shinohara, 2004: 265; Shinohara & Taeger, 2007: 38; Shinohara & Lelej, 2007: 932; Taeger et al., 2010: 89; Sundukov & Lelej, 2012: 109; Sundukov, 2017: 105; Lee et al., 2019: 10.

Material examined. Four specimens, including the type series, all from the Russian Far East and South Korea ( Shinohara 1988a; Shinohara & Taeger 2007; present work). New collection data: RUSSIA: Primorskij Kraj: 1♀ (DEI-GISHym 32049), Komissarovo N, 130m, 45.000°N 131.788°E, 4. VI. 2016, K. Kramp, M. Prous & A. Taeger, RU035 ( SDEI).

Distribution. Russia (Primorskij Kraj), South Korea.

Host plant. Unknown.

Remarks. Pamphilius pallidus was previously known only from three females from Primorskij Kraj and Korea ( Shinohara & Taeger 2007). It is a member of the P. sylvaticus group ( Shinohara 2002b). In our molecular study, the nearest neighbour was P. benesi , diverging by a minimum of 2.9% in the COI analysis and 0.5% in the NaK analysis. Pamphilius pallidus was retrieved as sister to P. benesi in both COI and NaK trees with 100% UFBoot support ( Figs 145 View FIGURE 145 , 159 View FIGURE 159 ).

The newly collected female ( Fig. 107 View FIGURE 107 ) is very pale; the black marks on the head are greatly reduced and the reddish (orange) colour of the abdominal dorsum (on the segments 2 to 5) has faded to dirty cream, with only a very faint tint of orange remaining. The male is still unknown.
