Of these, two species and one subspecies, A. mizunoi from central Honshu (host plant : Tsuga), A. tsuyukii from central Honshu and Shikoku (host plant : Tsuga), and A. aglaia stigma from central Honshu (host plants : Picea and Abies), are described as new. This is the first Palearctic host plant record of Acantholyda from a species of Abies. Descriptions are given for the previously unknown males of A. albomaculata Shinohara, 1985 and A. iwatai Takeuchi, 1938, and A. iwatai is newly recorded from Shikoku and Kyushu.
