Cardiodactylus hainanensis Ma & Zhang, 2010: 299. New synonymy. Examination of new material from Vietnam and Japan revealed that there is a continuous variation in the characters of coloration used to describe the species C. hainanensis from Hainan Island (China) (Fig. 26), which do not differ in male genitalia.

Type locality. Okinawa, Ryukyu Islands.
New signalizations. Japan, Ryukyu, Okinawa Pref., Ishigaki I., 14–15.X.1999, S. Belokobylsky, 4♂, 5♀ (ZIN); Iriomote I., 16–17.X. 1999, S. Belokobylsky, 1♂, 1♀ (ZIN); Okinawa-jima, Kunigami-cha, Yona, 14.VIII.1991, A. Lelej, 1♂ (ZIN); Amami I., 11.IX.2000, A. Bugrov (ZIN), 1♂, 1♀ (ZIN); Amami-Oshima, Komia near Sumno, 17.XII.1926, P.

Distribution. Japan (Ryukuy Islands), coastal part of Vietnam (north to south), Hainan Island (China), Taiwan.
Diagnosis and redescription. See Robillard and Ichikawa (2009).
Variation. Specimens from southern Vietnam tend to vary in female coloration (median anterior witish spot on FWs nearly absent, Fig. 25A), and one male has very angular peudepiphallic dorsal ridges in lateral view (Fig. 25B). Such characteristics could be seen as sufficient to diagnose a new species or subspecies if they were stable within the sampled locality, which is not the case.
