Summary:Neocrepidodera interpunctata (Motschulsky, 1859) (Figs. 3, 9, 15) Crepidodera interpunctata Motschulsky, 1859: 498 Crepidodera mitsuhashii Matsumura, 1911: 143 Asiorestia interpunctata: Gressit & Kimoto, 1963: 765 Material examined RUSSIA: Buryatia, Kyakhta distr., Kiran, 15–30 June 1999, 2 ex. (I.V. Melnik leg., BERC); Khabarovskiy Kray, Bureinskiy Khrebet [Bureja Gebirge], 1 ex. (Radde leg.); Kunashir Island, 24 July 1985, 2 ex. (Saluk leg.); Primorskiy Kray, Terney, 22–25 July 1998, 2 ex. (V. Kuznetsov leg., BERC); Sakhalin Island, 27 June 1985, 1 ex. (Saluk leg.); Sakhalin Island, Aniva distr., Krilyon peninsula, 6–7 August 1994, 1 ex. (A. Besarukin leg., BERC); Sakhalin Island, Gornozavodsk, 11 August 1992, 2 ex. (Konstantinov leg.). Diagnosis Length = 2.9–3.7 mm. Head: frontal tubercles not distinctly delimited posteriad, supracallinal sulcus effaced. First antennomere distinctly shorter than second and third together. Pronotum: subquadrate, slightly constricted antebasally, narrowly margined. Anterolateral callosity obtuse­angled, well developed and slightly asymmetrical. Surface covered with very coarse punctures on disc and slightly finer ones on basal region (Fig. 3). Elytra: striae completely irregular because punctures are duplicated and disordered (more strongly in females). Punctures large and deep. Interstriae slightly convex and narrower than double rows of punctures. Base of sixth elytral stria strongly impressed, deeper than the other striae. Aedeagus: almost parallel sided in ventral view, produced apically into an acute point (Fig. 9). Vaginal palpus: poorly developed, extremely short and narrow (Fig. 15 a). Spermatheca: as in Fig. 15 b.
