Diagnosis. This species can be separated from its congeners by the valva with a horn-shaped process at the base of costa and the juxta with a median forked process posteriorly ( Fig. 31 View FIGURES 31 – 33 ). Scythropiodes triangulus is similar to Myriopleura psilotis ( Meyrick, 1905) in both appearance and male genitalia. The generic status of Myriopleura Meyrick remains to be further studied.
