Joshi .</p><p>Diagnosis: Forewing length: male 14mm, female 15–16 mm.Forewing with a medial longitudinal white band from base to the postmedial line below the longitudinal black band. Hindwing blackish-brown with basal half transparent. Single frenulum in females also. Male genitalia with uncus beak-like; valva with a strong triangular process at the middle of the costa. Aedeagus long, narrow, with a small bulge at the apical end. Female genitalia. Ovipositor short and wide, with thick hairs. Apophyses posteriores longer than apophyses anteriores. Lateral lobes reduced, post-ostial invagination not clearly expressed, ostium surrounded with folds. Appendix bursae same size as corpus bursae, corpus bursae rounded, with a short spinose signum.</p><p>Distribution: India, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu (present study); China (Qi et al., 2011).</p><p>Remarks. Morphologically, L. trigonoprocessa is similar to L. squammigera Guenée, 1852, L. squammilinea Holloway, 1985 and L. nanheng Fu, Owada, Wu, Ronkay &amp; Shih, 2021 . However, the more distinct longitudinal white band on the forewing, the transparent zone of the hindwing in adults and the triangular process at the middle of the costa in the male genitalia of trigonoprocessa differentiate it from all its allied species. This is the first record of the species from India. L. squammigera from Maharasthra by Gurule and Nikam (2013), from Jharkhand by Singh et al. (2017) and from Kerala by Sondhi et al. (2018) are probably misidentifications of L. trigonoprocessa .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/4E7A87DEFFAAFF85E445FBAAE66D18B7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The more greyish longitudinal stripe on the forewing, male genitalia valva divided into two small arms apically and triangular lateral lobes in female genitalia separate it from its closely allied squammilinea .
