Taxonomy According to Irimura (1981), the type of O. koreana is synonymous with O. exigua. He kept the name, because it has been used by some auhtors for a different species. Thus the concept of O. koreana needs to be reviewed and possibly a replacement name needs to be found for the specimens that differ from the type. [details]
