Tridrepana adelpha Swinhoe sensu Chu & Wang, 1988, Acta Entom. Sinica, 31 (2): 204. (part).

Diagnosis. This species is close to T. sadana on the wing pattern (see diagnosis under that species). It is also close to T. rubromarginata. The subterminal line of the forewing is wavy, thin and indistinct in T. finita, but white and distinct in T. rubromarginata. On the forewing, a brown shadow from apex extending to the middle of the inner margin is present in T. rubromarginata but absent in T. finita. In the male genitalia, the posterior angle of the uncus is more pointed than that of T. rubromarginata.
