Recognized by body light brown; tegmina with fuscous stripes visibly; vertex with blackish marking medially; pronotum, mesonotum and prosternum with a pair of parallel blackish markings (Figs 3A–G); tegmina smoothly curved (Fig. 3D); frons with median carinae forked above level of lower margin of eyes (Fig. 3E); pygofer without medioventral structures (Figs 4E–F); aedeagus branched medially, division with small spinule (Fig. 4I). Redescription. Male. COLORATION:General coloration of body light brown(Figs 3A–C).Vertex concolorous, with background, lateral carinae slightly darker with fuscous marking medially (Fig. 3F). Pronotum and mesonotum concolorous, pronotum, mesonotum and prosternum with one pair of parallel blackish markings, mesonotum with longitudinal fuscous stripes developed inside lateral carinae (Figs 3F–G). Frons concolorous, lateral carinae fuscous. Gena darker than background; compound eyes dark brown (Figs 2C, 3E). Tegmina light brown, with fuscous stripes on Pcu+A1, CuA and Sc+R reaching anterior and posterior margins; veins slightly darker than background (Fig. 3D). Legs slightly darker than background, spines and spur teeth black (Fig. 2D). Abdomen light brown. SURFACE AND VESTITURE: Tegmina and body partly covered with thin wax layer, irregular and rough. STRUCTURE: Macropterous species, slender. Head. Head with compound eyes semicircular, narrower than pronotum; vertex at base flat, longer than width at midline, lateral and median carina well-developed (Figs 3F–G). Frons widest at basal level of compound eyes, converging narrowly to basal, median carinae visible; postclypeus with median carina. Antenna clavated, first segment distinctly shorter than second segment almost two times longer than first segment; flagellum fine, bristle-like, as long as pedicel (Fig. 3E). Thorax.

STRUCTURE: Same as male in general features, length distinctly longer than male (Fig. 3A). Abdomen. GENITALIA: Pygofer in lateral view roughly quadrate, narrowed dorsally, angulated; anterior margin flat, caudal margin without teeth or processes (Fig. 3E). In caudal view, pygofer opening simple, margins carinated; opening for genital styles compressed-oval (Fig. 3F). genital styles forceps-shaped; converging apically (Figs 3G–H). Aedeagus hook-shaped, robust and blunt; widest before midlength (in lateral view); dividing medially with small spinule; rounded at each apex, almost sclerotized but inner margins of upper appendage membranous; upper appendage curved to ventrally, narrower to median portion but apex expanded (Fig. 4I); lower appendage simple, short and blunt; in dorsal view, slightly twisted and bilobed with margins strongly serrated (Fig. 4J). Aedeagus tapering with suspensorium at basal (Fig. 4J). Suspensorium ovate, ring-like; longer than wide (Fig. 4K). Anal segment with one pair of spines pointed curved ventrally (Figs 4C–D).

Material examined. [SEHU] Lectotype: 1♂, Sapporo, Japan; 3.VIII.1924, S. Matsumura leg. Paralectotype: 1♀, same data as lectotype male; 2♀♀, Sapporo, Japan; 9.VIII.1924, S. Matsumura leg.; 1♂, 7♀♀, Sapporo, Japan; 4.VIII.1918, S. Matsumura leg.; 5♀♀, Sapporo, Japan; 12.VIII.1918, S. Matsumura leg.; [CNU] 3♂♂, 10♀♀, Janggok-dong, Siheung-si, Gyeonggi-do. Republic of Korea; 28.VII.2023, by sweeping on Phacelurus latifolius, J.K. Park, G.H. Jang, E.J. Kim, J.H. Jeon & Hamzah M. leg. Distributions. Korean Peninsula (Gyeonggi) *, Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu, Kyushu, Tsushima Island) (Fig. 5). Host plant. Phacelurus latifolius (Steud.) Ohwi *. Biology. The type locality is Hokkaido prefecture in Japan, shortly mentioned biology as follows; “collected in August by the author at Sapporo, but the male is rare”. In this study, it was observed this species feed on halophyte grass, Phacelurus latifolius. Remarks. Ishihara(1949) considered Toyoide s as a synonym of the genus Euidell a; however, more recent publications have not accepted this classification (Nast, 1972; Hayashi & Fujinuma, 2016). The type materials were not designated in the protologue (Matsumura, 1935). Here, we designated the lectotype and paralectotype which are deposited in SEHU. This species has not been redescribed since the original description. It is treated as a junior synonym of the genu s Toyoid es due to the similarity in habitus and genital characters, which are redescribed in this study.
