Niohozana: Bates (1883): 218 (original description; subgenus not specified; type locality: “ Niohozan ” (originally stated), changed to “ Mikuni-toge Japan ” through lectotype designation by Ledoux and Roux (1992)). Nebria niohozana: Sasakawa (2020): 46 (redescription; subgenus Falcinebria). Material examined. 3 ♂ 2 ♀ (KS), Japan • Mount Teraji-yama, Tobikoshi-shindô, on the border between Gifu Prefecture, Hida-shi, Kamioka-cho, Utsubo and Toyama Prefecture, Toyama-shi, Arimine, 4-X-2008, Hiroshi Nishida leg. Notes. In the Japanese Alps, this species had been recorded only from Mount Shirouma-dake, near the northern end of the mountain range (Sasakawa 2020). The present collection record indicates that N. niohozana is more widely distributed in the northern part of the Japanese Alps than previously recognized. No distinct differences in the endophallus shape were found between the Shirouma-dake specimen and the present specimen.
