Diagnosis. The wing pattern of this species is hardly distinguishable from many others of the genus Diduga . However, in male genitalia, uncus stout, hook˗shaped, with two triangular basal spur; both valva with stout, chisel or knife˗shaped basal process; stout aedeagus with nipple˗shaped cornuti; in female genitalia, ductus bursae mem- branous, with scobinated this species well from all the other known Diduga species.

Description. Adult (Figs 3a, 3b). Length of forewing 5.5˗6 mm in both sexes. Head, patagium and tegula deep yellow. Thorax dark brown. Forewing ground color dark brown, with broad, deep yellow costal margin, which hind border broadly waved; with row of small, dark brown dots or patches from basal of costa to tornus; cilia deep yellow. Hindwing ground color pale brown; cilia pale brown. Abdomen brown, except deep yellow ventral, with deep yellow anal tuft in male. Male genitalia (Fig 11a). Uncus stout, hook˗shaped, with two triangular basal spur, heavily covered with setae. Tegumen roundly triangular, weakly sclerotized. Valvae asymmetric: in left valva, broader (two times broader than right) than right valva, with a large (almost half size of uncus) upper angle’s and a small (half size of upper one) lower angle’s processes sclerotized, finger˗shaped; a basal process of costal area sclerotized, chisel or knife˗shaped; apex of cucculus rounded, membranous; in right valva, narrow, with a large process, which rounded apex and a small (half size of large one) process, which angled apex, both processes near lower angle of apex valva; a basal process of costal area sclerotized, chisel or knife˗shaped, slender than left valva’s process; apex of cucculus rounded, membranous. Juxta triangular. Saccus broadly “U”˗shaped. Aedeagus stout and vesica with nipple˗shaped cornuti and scobination. Female genitalia (Fig 11b). Papillae anales weakly covered with setae. Ostial plate strongly sclerotized, coverd with small spines whole of plate. Ductus bursae membranous, short (almost 4 times shorter than corpus bursae), with scobinated whole of length. Corpus bursae ovoid, with dense spinulose scobination.

Distribution. China (Tibet, Yunnan).

Etymology. The species name is derived from the Latin “ scalprum ” meaning “knife”, refers to the costal pro- cess of valva in the male genitalia.
