In terms of adult features, S. chuxionga sp. nov. has a head and thorax that are yellowish brown (in S. plumbeoviridis plumbeous green); forewing ground color yellowish brown with a more pronounced tan tone (in S. plumbeoviridis plumbeous grey with an intensive greenish tint); basal line field grayish yellow (in S. plumbeoviridis green); antemedial line field yellowish brown (in S. plumbeoviridis plumbeous green); costal margin area yellowish brown with some irregular dark brown stripes (in S. plumbeoviridis green dusting and diffused dark bases of transversal lines); medial line area yellowish brown (in S. plumbeoviridis plumbeous green); reniform spot brownish ovoid patches surrounded by dark brown dots on the lateral side (in S. plumbeoviridis as a patch of black scales, encircled inwardly by a semi-lunar line); postmedial line distinct (in S. plumbeoviridis indistinct); cilia brown (in S. plumbeoviridis plumbeous brown). For male genitalia, uncus apically blunt (in S. plumbeoviridis sharp); valva almost equal width between base and middle (in S. plumbeoviridis broad at the base); sacculus is almost as wide as costa (in S. plumbeoviridis wider than sacculus); distal costal process protrudes diagonally upwards (in S. plumbeoviridis has a smoother protrusion angle); distinct sacral process is relatively small, protruding inward in a finger shaped, and strongly sclerotized (in S. plumbeoviridis indistinct). There was no obvious diverticulum on the vesica (in S. plumbeoviridis bearing a small triangular diverticulum); vesica with a long cornuti band (in S. plumbeoviridis without cornuti).	en	Li, Jian, Hu, Hua-Lin, Han, Hui-Lin (2025): Two new species of Stenoloba Staudinger, 1892 from China (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Bryophilinae).

Stenoloba oculata species-group currently includes 11 species: S. albiangulata (Mell, 1943), S. oculata Draudt, 1950, S. oculatoides Han & Kononenko, 2018, S. brunnescens Kononenko & Ronkay, 2000, S. plumbeoviridis Han & Kononenko, 2018, S. plumbeobrunnea Han & Kononenko, 2018, S. cucullata Han & Kononenko, 2018, S. yenminia Ronkay, 2001, S. qingchenga Pekarsky, 2018, S. leonie Pekarsky, 2018, and S. chuxionga Li & Han, sp. nov. Stenoloba chuxionga sp. nov. shares several important characteristics with other species that are typical of the S. oculata species-group. The structure of the male genitalia reveals that the uncus is usually shorter, apically blunt; both sacculus and costa are hardened to varying degrees and have different shapes, the latter is characterized by a finger shaped or hill shaped protrusion in the middle or proximal part. Valve is relatively wide from the base to the middle, displaying hardened to varying degrees, with narrowing commences at the cucullus, where the outer edge nearly straight; additionally, cucullus usually have a protruding structure of various shapes extending outward, with corona; lastly, juxta usually large and tongue shaped or rhombic.	en	Li, Jian, Hu, Hua-Lin, Han, Hui-Lin (2025): Two new species of Stenoloba Staudinger, 1892 from China (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Bryophilinae).
