Xiphydria camelus (Linné, 1758) Japanese name: Akaashi-kubinaga-kibachi Material examined . HOKKAIDO: 1♂, Shimizu, 42°58'N 142°50'E, dead standing tree of Cerasus sp., coll. 5. IX. 2019, em. 25. V. 2020, H. Hara; 1 ♀, same data but em. 29. V. 2020; 1♀, same data but em. 31. V. 2020; 1♀, same data but em. 4. VI. 2020; 1 ♀, same data but em. 10. VI. 2020; 1 ♀, same data but em. 13. VI. 2020. HONSHU: Tochigi Pref.: 1 ♀, Shobugahama, Nikko, 26. VI. 2019, S. Maehara. Distribution. Europe, Russia (Sakhalin), Korea, Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu: Gunma, Tochigi, Yamanashi, Nagano prefectures). New record from Tochigi Prefecture. Host plant . Rosaceae: Cerasus sp. (new record based on adult emergence). Previous European records with good evidence are Acer campestre , Alnus spp., Betula verrucosa , Ulmus carpinifolia , Quercus , Ostrya carpinifolia , Populus (Schimitschek, 1974). Previous Japanese records for l X. camelus z (e.g., Okutani, 1967) refer to one or more of the three closely related species (Shinohara and Kameda, 2019) and thus need confirmation. Remarks . There are uncertain European records of lKirschez (Schimitschek, 1974) or Prunus spp. (Eichhorn, 1982; Taeger et al. , 1998) as a host plant of X. camelus . Schimitschek (1974) included lKirsche (Rudow, 1878)z in the list of host plants of X. camelus and mentioned lRudow (1888) zog X. camelus aus Weide und Kirschez. However, Rudow (1878, 1888) never referred to lKirschez as a host plant of this species.
