Parafontaria armigera is regarded as a subspecies of P. laminata and a senior synonym of P. kuhlgatzi montana and P. l. monticola. Parafontaria kuhlgatzi and aculeata are synonymous. The group of P. laminata in Japan is arranged as follows : Parafontaria laminata laminata (ATTEMS), P. l. armigera VERHOEFF, P. kuhlgatzi VERHOEFF and P. echizenensis SHINOHARA.
