Reticuluma Cheng & Li, 2005: 379–383; Fu & Zhang, 2015: 253–260. Type species: Reticuluma citrana Cheng & Li, 2005, by original designation.

Diagnosis. Body covered with black or dark brown reticulations. Crown and face with obvious boundary. Forewing with some supernumerary costal cross veins and many false veins consisting of dark pigment lines. Fore femur with anteroventral (AV1) seta morderately strong, intercalary (IC) row with about 10~13 setae; AM1 seta large, situated near apex. Fore tibia with dorsal and ventral surface flattened obliquely; AD and PD setae sparse; AV setae dense. Hind femoral macrosetae 2+2+1. Hind tibia flattened; AD setae very strong with several short setae between larger setae; PV setae dense. Male pygofer with short or long macrosetae near posterior margin. Style narrowed from base to hook-like apex.

Reticuluma resembles Penthimia Germar but differs from the latter in having the color pattern of the head, pronotum, scutellum and forewings reticulate; and boundary between the crown and face well defined. The genus also has some resemblance to Tambila Distant, but the latter has the head in profile angled to the apex near the eye.
