Abstract

Opisthoplatia orientalis (Burmeister, 1838) was found in Minamiawaji City, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, in 2020. This is the first record of this species on Awaji Island. Most of the past records from Honshu are reported from coastal areas as in this report. This species, which had become established in coastal areas, was unintentionally introduced inland. After that, cases of expanded distribution have been reported. Therefore, we need to closely monitor the expansion of the distribution of this species on Awaji Island.
