Description
Genus Allophrys Förster, 1869
Allophrys is an almost exclusively tropical genus comprising 34 species (Yu et al. 2016; Khalaim 2017 a, 2018a; Khalaim & Villemant 2019). Japanese fauna of Allophrys was revised by Khalaim (2017a) who described two species from Kyushu I., A. matsumurai Khalaim and A. takemotoi Khalaim, and recorded from Kansai and Kyushu regions a morphospecies represented only by males (Khalaim 2017a: 390). The latter morphospecies is recorded here from Kanagawa Pref.
Very little is known about the biology of the genus. The only host record is from an unidentified sap beetle (Nitidulidae) in fallen guava fruits in the Neotropical region (Horstmann 2010).
