  • ❗ Kitasatoa nagasakiensis is the correct name instead if this species is regarded as a separate species (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another species whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate genus Kitasatoa.
  • ✏ The authority of the taxon name (Matsumae and Hata) deliberately differs from the authors of the publication (Matsumae et al.).
