Abstract

Nemomydas gruenbergi Hermann, 1914, comb. n., which was known only from Formosa, is here redescribed and illustrated, based on the specimens from the Yaeyama Islands of Japan. Nemomydas is new to the Oriental region. Except for gruenbergi, this genus contains 16 species which are distributed in North and Central America only ["Canada (British Columbia) to Panama"].
