Name
Mimozethes angula Chu & Wang, 1987 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Mimozethes angula Chu & Wang, 1987: 207. Holotype ♂, China: Sichuan: Mt. Emei (IZCAS).
Diagnosis
This species is very similar to Mimozethes lilacinaria (Leech, 1897) and Mimozethes argentilinearia, but it can be distinguished by the following characters: the outer margin of the forewing is less strongly protruding than that of Mimozethes lilacinaria and Mimozethes argentilinearia; the black patch inside the anal angle of the forewing is less distinct than that of Mimozethes argentilinearia; the yellowish brown patch on the underside of the forewing is much smaller and less distinct than that of Mimozethes lilacinaria and Mimozethes argentilinearia. In the male genitalia, the uncus is shorter; the ventral margin of the valva forms a small triangular protrusion apically, but Mimozethes lilacinaria and Mimozethes argentilinearia lack this character; the sacculus process is much longer than that of Mimozethes lilacinaria.
