Abstract
In this study, we describe Ectropoceros sagittalis sp. nov. from Japan. This, to the best of our knowledge, is the first record of the genus from the Palaearctic region. Photographs of adult female specimens, pupa, and their genitalia are presented, and their biology is described. We also provide a world checklist for the genus Ectropoceros.
