Scrobipalpa chinensis Povolny 1969

Description

10. Scrobipalpa chinensis Povolný, 1969

(Figs. 13, 35, 52)

Wingspan 11.0 mm.

Distribution. China (Yunnan).

Notes. The examined male was collected at the type locality of S. chinensis and fits well externally (Fig. 13) and in the male genitalia (Fig. 35) with the holotype figured by D. Povolný (Pl. 10, fig. 11; Pl. 34, fig. 307). The female which was collected in the same locality but one month late slightly differs externally in the smaller size. The female genitalia (Fig. 52) are characterized by the weakly sclerotized segment VIII in combination with prolonged, not distinctly separated corpus bursae with short, strongly curved signum. The separation from S. sinica sp. n. can be seen under that species.
