Ordo: Lepidoptera
Familia: Oecophoridae
Genus: Promalactis
Name
Promalactis dierli Lvovsky, 2000 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Promalactis dierli Lvovsky, 2000: 667. Type locality: Nepal.
Material examined
China, Xizang autonomous Region: 1 ♀, Zhangmu Port, 11.VIII.1981, coll. Shengyuan Hu, genitalia slide No. DZH12003 (IOZ).
Diagnosis
Adult with wingspan 14.5 mm. This species is very similar to Promalactis jezonica (Matsumura, 1931), but can be separated by the forewing without the white dot at end of the fold (Fig. 14); the uncus having a triangular process at basal 3/5 ventrally, the broad leaf-like juxta, and the aedeagus with a short spine extending from dorsal side at distal 1/4 in the male genitalia (Lvovsky 2000[1], fig. 5), and further the mound-like lamella postvaginalis in the female genitalia (Fig. 37). In Promalactis jezonica, the forewing has a white dot at end of the fold, the uncus lacks the triangular process, the juxta is very slender, and the aedeagus has no distal spine; and the lamella postvaginalis is nearly crown shaped.
Distribution
China (Xizang); Nepal.
Note
This species is recorded from China for the first time.
