Sinophilus yukoae was recorded from the Nansei Archipelago (Iheya-jima, Ishigaki-jima, and Iriomote-jima Islands), and J. hojoi was reported from the Tokara Archipelago (Nakano-shima and Suwanose-jima Islands) and Yaku-shima Island in the original descriptions (MaruyaMa & Iwata, 2002). Subsequently, both beetles were collected in coastal regions of Wakayama Prefecture, Central Japan (MaruyaMa et al., 2012). We renew the distributional ranges of the two beetles here.}, pages = {39--40}, title = {New Distributional Records of Two Termitophilous Rove Beetles (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) in Japan}, volume = {9}, year = {2019} }
