Distribution
The distribution of Akiyoshia includes Japan[2] from whence it was described.
There are some indications that so-called "Akiyoshia" species from southern China may not be true Akiyoshia.[2]

Species in the subgenus Saganoa from Japan are blind snails.[3] "Akiyoshia" species from China are not blind.[3]
Species
Species within the genus Akiyoshia include:
Subgenus Akiyoshia
Subgenus Saganoa Kuroda, Habe & Tamu, 1957[4]
- "Akiyoshia" chinensis Liu, Zhang & Chen, 1982[2] - anatomy of this Chinese species was described in 1992,[3]
- Akiyoshia kishiiana Kuroda, Habe & Tamu, 1957
- Akiyoshia morimotoi[5]
- "Akiyoshia" yunnanensis Liu, Wang & Zhang, 1982[3]
Nomina nuda:
- Akiyoshia odonta, Akiyoshia (Saganoa) odonta Feng et al., 1985 and Akiyoshia (Saganoa) odonta Feng et al., 1986 are nomina nuda.[3]
