Remarks.

After checking the type specimens of Bhatasca rectangulata , we found the characters of wing, basal abdominal apodemes and male genitalia described by Qin et al. (2011) in mainland China are the same as those of the species described by Hayashi and Okada (1994). Furthermore, the distribution of Bhatasca rectangulata has nearly same latitude as the type locality of Alebrasca actinidiae Hayashi & Okada in Japan (central Honshu). Therefore, synonymy of the two species is confirmed here.
