Matsumura, 1917 is a small aphid genus from the tribe Tuberolachnini (Hemiptera: Lachninae) occurring in Southeast Asia. Species from this genus are quite characteristic and stand out among lachnids for their morphology and ecological associations. We have performed a revision and phylogenetic analyses to elucidate the relationships within and other representatives of Tuberolachnini. Here, the taxonomy of the genus is revised based on morphological data to include seven species, three of them newly described: . . from India, . . from China, and . . from Indonesia. appear to be non monophyletic genus and a new genus, . ., is described to accommodate (van der Goot, 1917) as (van der Goot, 1917) . . The new genus is a sister group to the remaining species, which created a monophyletic clade. Shinji, 1924 . . is recognised as a synonym of , and Shinji, 1924 . . as a synonym of Shinji, 1924. For the first time, a scanning electron microscopy study of the sexual generation of Matsumura, 1917 has been performed. Apterous and alate viviparous females of Basu and Hille Ris Lambers, 1968, , and , and alate viviparous females of Zhang and Zhong, 1982 are re-described and illustrated, as well as apterous and alate viviparous females of . . Hitherto unknown morphs of , , and are described. A lectotype and paralectotypes of N. x are designated herein. Notes on distribution and host plants are given, and keys to apterous and alate viviparous females of the genera and are also provided.

Nippolachnus is a small Palaearctic-Oriental genus of very characteristic aphids that live on the leaves of woody Rosaceae. One species, N. piri, has hitherto been regarded to be widely distributed and relatively polyphagous.

The origin of Keijo Imperial University, Medical School, Psychiatry course, and presentation at the Annual Meetings of the Japanese Society of Psychiatry and Neurology and The Japanese Society of Psychiatry and Neurology were investigated from its establishment to 1945. Keijo was the name used for the capital city of Korea, Seoul, when Korea was under Japanese rule. We believe the Keijo Imperial University evolved out of the Governor-General of Korea Hospital and Keijo Medical Professional School.
