抄録	Hybomitra akiyamai Murdoch & Takahasi, 1969 was originally described on the basis of a single female specimen collected at Nikko, Tochigi Prefecture, Japan. However, H. akiyamai was synonymized with Hybomitra hirticeps (Loew, 1858) by H. Hayakawa with no explanation. I examined the holotype specimen of H. akiyamai and 11 specimens which had been collected in Japan and identified as H. hirticeps, and I found some distinct differences between the former specimen and the latter in diagnostically important features and the wing venation. I conclude that H. akiyamai holotype specimen is distinct at the species level from H. hirticeps specimens, and the name H. akiyamai is valid.
