Scythropiodes elasmatus Park et Wu, 1997: 34 . TL: China View in CoL (Sichuan: Mt. Emei). TD: IZCAS.

Diagnosis. This species is similar to S. lividula in the forewing pattern. Scythropiodes elasmatus can be separated in the male genitalia by the transtilla with a pair of subtriangular lateral lobes and the juxta with two horn-shaped lateral lobes posteriorly ( Fig. 27 View FIGURES 25 – 30 ). In S. lividula , the transtilla has a pair of slender digitate lateral lobes, and the juxta possesses two rod-shaped lateral lobes posteriorly ( Clarke 1955: Pl. 235, Figs 3–3 View FIGURE 3 b).

Female genitalia ( Fig. 39 View FIGURES 38 – 42 ). Papillae anales rectangular, setose. Apophyses posteriores about twice length of apophyses anteriores, anterior apophyses curved at 2/3. Antrum weakly sclerotized, subtrapezoidal, with dense granules on inner surface. Ductus bursae membranous, about 1.5 times length of corpus bursae, weakly sclerotized from anterior 1/3 to 5/12. Corpus bursae elliptical; with two subelliptical signa bearing dense denticles.
