Abstract
The genus Peratophyga Warren, 1894 in China is reviewed. Six species are recognized, of which P. crista sp. nov. and P. recta sp. nov. are described. P. hyalinata grata (Butler, 1879) is restored to specific rank as P. grata (Butler, 1879) stat. rev. P. grata totifasciata Wehrli, 1923 comb. nov. is proposed. P. xanthyala (Hampson, 1896) and P. grata grata (Butler, 1879) are newly recorded for China. Two species are transferred from Peratophyga to the genus Stegania Guenée, 1845: S. castaneostriata (Yazaki & Wang, 2004) comb. nov. and S. modesta (Yazaki & Wang, 2004) comb. nov. A key to Chinese Peratophyga and diagnoses for Chinese species are provided. Illustrations of external features and genitalia are presented.
原來Taibnet中根據台灣鱗翅目昆蟲誌所登錄的Peratophyga venetia是一個錯誤的鑑定。作者將海南、廣東到台灣等地所見到的標本都視為一個新種Peratophyga crista Jiang, Xue & Han, 2012。此屬尺蛾的幼蟲取食金絲桃科植物，台灣產者的引證標本來自波昂動物學博物館中採自天祥的標本。
