Type species: Metendothenia emmilta Diakonoff, 1973, by original designation.</p><p>Diagnosis.</p><p>Metendothenia is characterized by the following features: (1) hindleg of the male with a groove on the inner side of the hind-tibia where a tibial pencil is present; (2) hindwing of the male with an anal lobe; (3) often with asymmetrical valva, usually with more setae on the left one; (4) phallus slender, usually with minute spines ventrally; (5) sacculus complex, sometimes with a setose expanded process; (6) ostium bursae dilated posteriorly; and (7) corpus bursae with a scobinate signum (Diakonoff 1973; Horak 2006; Pinkaew and Muadsub 2021).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>According to Pinkaew and Muadsub (2021), 16 species are included in Metendothenia, distributed in the Holarctic, Afrotropical, Oriental and Australasian regions. Recently, Nasu (2024) returned M. atropunctana (Zetterstedt, 1839) and M. inouei Kawabe, 1987, to the genus, increasing the species number to 18, pointing out that the genus requires further revision.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/027B6925747E5A938D1AC156AD479DF4	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

According to Diakonoff (1982) and Nasu and Tominaga (2008), the two species share similar wing pattern. The two can be distinguished by the length of the antrum, which is shorter than 1 / 4 of the ductus bursae in M. organica, while longer than 1 / 3 of the ductus bursae in M. mesarotra .</p><p>Host plants.</p><p>The following plants are documented as larval hosts of M. mesarotra: Mischocarpus sundaicus Blume ( Sapindaceae) (Robinson et al. 2001), Putranjiva matsumurae Koidz. (Nasu and Tominaga 2008), Drypetes littoralis (C. B. Rob.) Merr. and P. formosana Kaneh. &amp; Sasaki ex Shimada ( Putranjivaceae) (this study).</p><p>Biology.</p><p>Similar to the biology recorded by Nasu and Tominaga (2008), larvae folded the leaves of Drypetes littoralis or Putranjiva formosana, forming a shelter and feeding on the surface of leaves (Figs 15–17). Mature larvae cut the leaf edge and fold it to form a case in which they pupate (Figs 18–20). According to our rearing record, Metendothenia mesarotra is a multivoltine species in Taiwan, the same as in Okinawa (Nasu and Tominaga 2008).</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Solomon Islands, Indonesia (Java Island) (Diakonoff 1973), Japan (Okinawa, Ishigaki and Aragusuku Islands) (Nasu 2024), and Taiwan (Pingtung County and Lanyu Island) (this study).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>Immature stages of this species are described by Nasu and Tominaga (2008). No differences are found between populations from Taiwan and Japan. Since detailed illustrations of the hindleg and hindwing have not been given before, images are provided to illustrate the presence of the tibial pencil and anal lobe (Figs 5, 6). An image of abdominal segment VIII is also provided to illustrate the broad sclerotized plate on the sternum VIII (Fig. 8).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/EAD93822EE5E56308496D79394011349	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Type species: Polychrosis gabina Meyrick, 1909, by original designation.</p><p>Diagnosis.</p><p>Xenolepis may be distinguished from other genera by the following male genitalia characters: (1) uncus conical; (2) socii small; (3) gnathos narrow, sclerotized or membranous; (4) tuba analis moderately long, weakly sclerotized; (5) valva slender, covered with apically bifurcate spines, bent medially; (6) sacculus short, with a tuft of short setae and a group of slender setae projecting beyond the short setae tuft; (7) cucullus with spines at ventral base; and (8) phallus curved, lacking cornuti (Diakonoff 1973; Thonongtor et al. 2022; Brown and Miller 2023).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>According to Brown and Miller (2023), seven species have been described prior to this study. Xenolepis is mainly distributed in the Oriental and Australasian regions (Diakonoff 1973; Thonongtor et al. 2022; Brown and Miller 2023). Brown and Miller (2023) also proposed that there are two species groups. The first group which includes the type species of the genus is characterized by a dark brown forewing with a pale median fascia and a hindwing with an unusual deep cleft. The second group is characterized by a forewing with bright orange blotches and dark brown patches and a hindwing without a cleft. Based on the COI data generated by Brown and Miller (2023), they concluded that the second group may represent a new genus, requiring further revision in the future. Brown and Miller (2023) also provided a key to the males of Xenolepis . We modify the key to include the new species, which belongs to the second group.</p><p>An updated key to males of Xenolepis modified from Brown and Miller (2023)</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/7CA0FE6DB6B156649D71F09A18ABC883	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

In the adults, X. syamanlamurani sp. nov. can be distinguished from X. cultrata and X. apicula by the connected basal patch and median fascia of the forewing versus the separated basal patch and median fascia on the forewing of X. cultrata and X. apicula . In the male genitalia, X. syamanlamurani sp. nov. and X. cultrata possess a relatively straight cucullus compared to the curved cucullus of X. apicula . X. syamanlamurani sp. nov. and X. cultrata can be distinguished by the following differences: dorsal margin of the cucullus slightly curved at apical third in X. syamanlamurani sp. nov., whereas straight in X. cultrata; and proportion of the valva length and sacculus length is 5: 1 in X. syamanlamurani sp. nov., compared to 4: 1 in X. cultrata .</p><p>Description.</p><p>Male (Figs 3, 7, 12, 13).
