中國四川瀘定縣莫西產卵翅蛾新種 - 莫西卵翅蛾 (莫西鈴蛾)
文獻來源: Chen LS, Owada M, Wang M, Yang L. 2009. The genus Neopseustis (Lepidoptera: Neopseustidae) from China, with description of one new species. Zootaxa 2089: 10-18. [摘要連結]Abstract
The members of the genus Neopseustis Meyrick, 1909 from China are reviewed, and a key to the species is given. Neopseustis moxiensis Chen & Owada is described as a new species, characterized by the monotonous fuscous hindwings, and by the compressed clavate tegumenal lobes as well as slender uncinate apex of valvae. All the type specimens of new species are deposited in the Department of Entomology, South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou, China. Neopseustis fanjingshana Yang, 1988 (type locality: Guizhou) is redescribed on the basis of a male specimen, collected in Hunan. Diagnoses, notes and collecting data are given for N. bicornuta, N. sinensis, N. meyricki and N. archiphenax. A checklist of the Neopseustidae (4 genera, 13 species) is provided with their distribution.

Abstract
The type genus of the family Geometridae, Geometra Linnaeus, is reviewed. In addition to the 16 species known worldwide, two new species are described: Geometra neovalida sp. nov. from China, and Geometra burmensis sp. nov. from Burma (Myanmar). All the known species are redescribed. Genitalia of all species are described and illustrated, most for the first time. Generic characters based on all species are summarized. The monophyly of the genus and its relationship with allied genera are reviewed and discussed in detail. Most species fall into two species groups, named the papilionaria and smaragdus groups, on the basis of the morphology of the male genitalia. Biological information is provided where available. Illustrations of moths and genitalia are presented.

日本和歌山產蛀食濱海黃槿之稜巢蛾科新種
文獻來源: Kobayashi S, Hirowatari T, Murase M, Kuroko H. 2009. A new stem-borer of the genus Bucculatrix (Lepidoptera: Bucculatricidae) from Japan, with description of the life history. Entomological Science 12(1): 84-90. [摘要連結]Abstract
A new species of bucculaticid moth, Bucculatrix hamaboella sp. nov. (Host plant: Hibiscus hamabo, Malvaceae) is described from Wakayama Prefecture, Japan. The feeding habit of the new species is unique in that: (i) the young larva is a leaf miner forming a long red linear mine but in the later instars the larva becomes a stem borer; (ii) later instar larvae undergo double molts within a cocoonet (molting cocoon); and (iii) penultimate and final instars appear on the surface of the leaf as non-feeding stages. The external non-feeding larvae of B. hamaboella undergoing double molts within one cocoonet are considered to be an abbreviated form of the external feeding instars of other bucculatricids typically making first and second cocoonets, undergoing a single molt within each cocoonet. On the basis of morphological characters, this species is related to the species of Sections I and II (Host: Asteraceae) of Braun (1963), rather than to the species of Section VIII (Host: Malvaceae).
中國廣東產越南小翅蛾屬之二新種 - 南崑山小翅蛾與南嶺小翅蛾
文獻來源: Hirowatari, Toshiya, Satoshi Hashimoto, Utsugi Jinbo & Min Wang, 2009, Descriptions of two new species of Vietomartyria Hashimoto & Mey (Lepidoptera: Micropterigidae) from South China, with reference to autapomorphies of the genus, Entomological Science 12 (1): 67-73. [摘要連結]Abstract
Two new species of micropterigids, Vietomartyria nankunshana Hirowatari & Hashimoto sp. nov. and V. nanlingana Hirowatari & Jinbo sp. nov., are described from Nankunshan and Nanling (Guangdong, China), respectively. The genus Vietomartyria Hashimoto & Mey, 2000, which was originally established as a monotypic genus, is redefined based on the following autapomorphies shared by the three species: (i) the long basal stalk of each flagellomere; (ii) the many (>100) minute serrate projections near the gonopore of aedeagus; and (iii) the gonopore situated dorsally near the apex.
