Comments. The original description of Gergithoides carinatifrons (SCHUMACHER 1915) and the images of a hind wing of a syntype (the only part that remains from two syntypes in ZMHB) were compared with the images of the male lectotype of Daruma nitobei Matsumura, which are available on Hokkaido University website (ANONYMOUS 2008). The species was redescribed by CHAN & YANG (1994, Fig. 5). The synonymization is based on the following features (Figs. 5–6): metope elongate with strong median keel; coryphe elongate and narrow with acutely angulate anterior margin; fore wings with relief reticulate venation; hind wings almost equal in length to fore wings and with reticulate venation.
