I wanted to get the correct name for a Ruteline beetle that I see as either: Fruhstorferia tamdaoensis or Kibakoganea tamdaoensis
Does anyone know which is the current name, or are these two different species? Rick

I think Nagai 1984 named Kibakoganea as a subgenus of Fruhstorferia and then in 1992 Hirasawa raised it to generic status and tamdaoensis is placed there. My question was whether this change is generally accepted and is the current status or has it been rejected. I'm trying to update the database at our local museum.
