Two new genera, Pantheaforma gen. n. (Type-species Pantheaforma ihlei sp. n.) and Chrisotea gen. n. (Type-species Trichosea zhangi Chen, 1990) from East Asia and a new species Pantheaforma ihlei sp. n. from Thailand and Myanmar are described. New combination Chrisoteazhangi (Chen, 1990), comb. n. is proposed. New taxa are illustrated with imagines in colour and male and female genitalia. The little-known species Pantheanayangzisherpana Hreblay, 1998, formerly only known from Nepal is reported for China for the first time.
Five new species of the genus Hermonassa Walker, 1865 (H. nigricans sp. nov., H. conusa sp. nov., H. brunneocuprina sp. nov., H. albimacula sp. nov., and H. linzhiensis, sp. nov. are described from Autonomic Region Xizang, China (Tibet). Hermonassa nigricans sp. nov. is distributed in Nepal and China, and the Himalayan species H. kalamantra Kovács, G. Ronkay & L. Ronkay, 2018 is reсorded for China for the first time. The occurrences of H. anthracina Boursin, 1967 in Nepal is questionable taking in the account the presence of two externally hardly distinguishable species, H. kalamantra and H. nigricans sp. nov. New collecting data for H. yixincheni Han & Li, 2007 and H. oleographa Hampson, 1911 in China are presented. Five species groups are reviewed, and three species groups are designated.
Three new species of the genus Araeopteron Hampson, 1893: A. dawai sp. nov., A. medogensis sp. nov. and A. tibeta sp. nov. are described from Motuo (= Medog) County of the Xizang Autonomous Region (= Tibet), China. The imagines as well as the male genitalia are illustrated. A checklist of the 45 species of the genus Araeopteron in the world fauna is presented, including recently and presently described species.
A new species, Caissa yunnana sp. nov. is described from Yunnan Prov., China. The new species is illustrated with images of the adult habitus and male genitalia, and compared with the similar specks C. caissa Hering, 1931. A world checklist of the genus Caissa Hering, 1931 is provided
Four new species of the genus Araeopteron Hampson, 1893 are described: A. maculassp. nov. , A. simaoensissp. nov. , A. submedogensissp. nov. , and A. kononenkoisp. nov. , and A. xanthopis (Hampson, 1907) is reported for the first time from China. The new species are diagnosed based on the adult habitus and genitalia, and compared with related species. Meanwhile, the genitalia of A. xanthopis are illustrated and described for the first time in this study.
Twelve new species of the genus Stenoloba Staudinger, 1892 (S. gaoligonga sp. n., S. huanxipoa sp. n., S. chlorobrunnea sp. n., S. ochraceola sp. n., S. plumbeoviridis sp. n., S. plumbeobrunnea sp. n., S. cucullata sp. n., S. asymmetrica sp. n., S. acontioides sp. n., S. rectilinoides sp. n., S. uncata sp. n. and S. assimilina sp. n.) are described from China. Four species (S. albistriata Kononenko & Ronkay, S. glaucescens (Hampson), S. rectilinea Yoshimoto, and S. brunnescens Kononenko & Ronkay) are reported to China for the first time; S. nora Kononenko & Ronkay is firstly reported for the continental China. The female genitalia of five species (S. albistriata, S. brunnescens, S. plumbeoculata Pekarsky, Dvořák & G. Ronkay, S. motuoensis Han & Lu and S. acutivalva Han & Kononenko) are described and illustrated for the first time. New data on distribution in China for four species are provided. All treated species are illustrated in colour with black and white photographs of their genitalia in 56 figures. The updated global checklist of the genus Stenoloba with marking of Chinese species is presented.
