Diagnosis. This species is similar to F. cornutiprocera sp. nov. superficially, but it can be distinguished from the latter by the tongue-shaped uncus with basolateral process slender, about 4/5 the length of the uncus, and the valva without apical process in the male genitalia; and by the colliculum about 2 times as long as the antrum in the female genitalia. In F. cornutiprocera sp. nov., the conical uncus has the basolateral process horn-shaped, and is less than 1/6 the length of the uncus, and the apical process of the valva is present ( Fig. 10 View FIGURES 9–13 ); and the colliculum is about 1/2 the length of the antrum ( Fig. 15 View FIGURES 14–17 ). In addition, F. longispinosa sp. nov. also resembles F. bicoloralis in the female genitalia, but it can be distinguished by the apophyses anteriores about 2.5 times as long as the apophyses posteriores, the colliculum about 2 times as long as the antrum. In F. bicoloralis , the apophyses anteriores are about 1.5 times as long as apophyses posteriores, and the colliculum is about 2/5 length of antrum ( Fig. 14 View FIGURES 14–17 ).

Description. Adult ( Figs 5–7 View FIGURES 1–5 View FIGURES 6–8 ). Wingspan 20.5–21.0 mm. Frons and vertex covered with yellowish-brown scales in male, with brown scales in female. Male labial palpus yellowish-brown, first segment about 1/4 length of second, second segment slightly mixed with fuscous scales ventrally, third segment slightly porrect, mixed with fuscous scales, same length as first; female labial palpus with first segment same color as that in male, second segment reddish brown on outer side, yellowish-brown on inner side, about 1/4 length of second, third segment same length as first, with fuscous scales on outer side, with brown scales on inner side and tip. Maxillary palpus tiny, with brown scales. Antenna of male with scape enlarged slightly, flagellum with cilia ventrally; female antenna simple. Patagium and tegula covered with same color scales as frons and vertex. Forewing pale yellowish-brown; basal area brown, outer margin with anterior half black, mixed with reddish brown slightly, posterior half reddish brown gradually disappeared to dorsum; terminal area fuscous mixed with reddish brown except apex yellowish-brown; costal margin fuscous with interrupted by brown spots; antemedial line not distinct, from basal 1/4 of costa arched outward to basal 1/4 of dorsum, distinctly convex outwardly in cell; postmedial line bounded by slim fuscous line on inner side, waved from distal 1/4 of costa to distal 1/5 of dorsum, with a distinct outwardly convex between M 2 and CuA 1; median area with scattered fuscous scales; distal discoidal stigma fuscous, with a few reddish brown scales; cilia brown at base, purplish apically. Hindwing concolorous with median area of forewing except basal area purplish-red slightly, covered with scattered fuscous scales; antemedial lines serrated, edged with fuscous lines on each side; postmedial line edged with reddish and fuscous lines on outer and inner side, respectively; cilia same as forewing. Foreleg with femur and tibia fuscous, mixed with reddish and brown scales slightly, tarsus fuscous, except each apex of tarsomere yellow; midleg with femur and basal half of tibia fuscous, mixed with reddish brown scales, distal half of tibia yellow; hindleg with femur yellowish-brown, mixed with fuscous scales, tibia and tarsus yellowish-brown, with scattered fuscous scales slightly.

Male genitalia ( Fig. 13 View FIGURES 9–13 ). Uncus tongue-shaped, setose dorsally at distal 1/3, basolateral process crescent at base, distal part rather slim and long, slightly sinuous, about 4/5 length of uncus. Gnathos lateral arms slim, joined from distal 1/7, distal process about 1/4 length of uncus. Valva with costal margin and ventral margin parallel; a transverse edge from base of costa to distal 1/3 of ventral margin; setose at distal 1/3 of ventral margin and transverse edge; sacculus about 2/3 length of valva, oblong at basal 2/3, slim and upturned at distal 1/3; apex of valva arched, without apical process. Juxta oval, concaved in V shape posteriorly. Saccus about half length of juxta. Phallus with basal bulb about 2/3 length of distal part, cornutus about 1/3 length of phallus.

Female genitalia ( Fig. 17 View FIGURES 14–17 ). Papillae anales anterior 3/4 ovate, posterior 1/4 narrowed into short, broad column shaped. Apophyses anteriores about 2.5 times as long as apophyses posteriores. Antrum about half length of apophyses posteriores. Colliculum cylindrical and well-sclerotized, about 2 times as long as antrum. Ductus bursae membranous, anterior 1/3 scobinate on inner surface, posterior 2/3 slightly wrinkled. Corpus bursae ovate, about 1/8 as long as ductus bursae, signum rounded, with numeral spinules, one short thorn placed near center.

Distribution. China (Hainan).

Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin longus (long) and spinosus (thorny), in reference to the long and thorn-shaped process at base of uncus.
