摘要
The subfamily Termitoxeniinae is discovered in Nansei-shoto, Japan and the following species are recorded, described and keyed: Clitelloxenia formosana Shiraki 1925, Horologiphora sinensis Disney 1997, Pseudotermitoxenia nitobei Shiraki 1925, and Selenophora shimadai Maruyama et Disney, gen. et sp. nov. Brevrostrophora Disney 1997 and B. fuscoterga Disney 1997 are synonymized with Pseudotermitoxenia Shiraki 1925 and P. nitobei, respectively. These species were collected from the fungus garden of the fungus growing termite Odontotermes formosanus Shiraki on the islands of Ishigaki-jima and Iriomote-jima of Nansei-shoto, Japan.
