Agapanthia (Amurobia) amurensis Kraatz, 1879 Literature data. Sükhbaatar: 9 km WSW of Dariganga [Дарьганга], sands of Moltsog-Els [пески Молцог-Элс] [45.269, 113.737]. 08.07.1971, 1 ex. (Namhaidorzh 1976a). Remarks. Agapanthia amurensis is distributed between Baikal and the Pacific Ocean coast, including Transbaikal, the Ussuri-Primor’e region, northern Mongolia, northeast China, the Korean peninsula, and Japan (Cherepanov 1991a). This species is similar to Agapanthia pilicornis (Fabricius, 1787), however, it can be easily distinguished inter alia by colourless (not variegated) antennae and lighter body colour (Cherepanov 1991a). According to Cherepanov (1991a), this species inhabits meadows and open forest clearances, and it is ecologically associated with Galatella dahurica DC. (Asteraceae) and Astragalus membranaceus Moench (= Astragalus trimestris L.) (Fabaceae). The adults are active from the end of May or early June to August.
