Type species: Ammoconia parvispina Tschetverikov, 1904, by original designation.</p><p>Diagnosis. Adults exhibit a typical noctuoid wing pattern, usually with a complete set of lines and stigmata. Their habitus resembles that of Atrachea Warren, 1911, or Apamea Ochsenheimer, 1816, but adults tend to have narrower, elongate forewings and lack the green wing elements often present in Atrachea species. Compared with Atrachea nitens (Butler, 1878) and other Apameini, the valva in Parvispinia has a fully developed harpe and a clear, more or less developed distal ampulla, whereas in Apameini including Atrachea, only a distal ampulla is typically present, and the harpe is either completely reduced or vestigial. The juxta of Parvispinia is distinctly U-shaped, with two lateral extensions, whereas in most Apameini the juxta appears shield- or anchor-shaped. The vesica of Atrachea is usually armed with a strong single cornutus or is unarmed, whereas in Parvispinia, the vesica features two patches of tiny, needle-like cornuti and, in some species, two patches of small and two large cornuti. Females of all Parvispinia species have long apophyses and elongate, relatively heavily sclerotized papillae anales, loosely covered with short setae. The structure of the papillae anales differs from that of Apameini, possessing shorter, broader sclerotized papillae anales, with a pair of narrow, elongate, sclerotized areas between the papillae, which are absent in Parvispinia .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03B087998031FFC7FF66F9B8E084FEC5	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Type specimen: HT male, GS BJ1840 (ASV). Type locality: “ China, N. Sichuan, road Barkam / Hong Yuan, H- 3400 m ”.</p><p>Diagnosis. In the male genitalia, P. barkama differs from all other Parvispinia species by its narrow, elongate, downcurved harpe with a rounded apex. It also has a wider vesica than any other species, except P. caelestina, but the latter features two additional large diverticula in the vesica, which are absent in all other species. In the female genitalia, P. barkama differs from P. parvispina and P. parilis by having the appendix bursae positioned close to the ductus bursae; from P. caelestina by a more heavily sclerotized antrum and appendix bursae; from P. geminus by a larger appendix bursae; from P. clavata sp. nov. by a larger sclerotized area in the appendix bursae and a larger corpus bursae; and from P. dellabrunai sp. nov. by a more heavily sclerotized area between the appendix and corpus bursae and by the lack of signa.</p><p>Distribution (Figs 19, 20). The species was only known from its type locality until it was recently found 800 km west of there, in Xizang. The specimens were collected from Sapu Sacred Mountain at 4,186 meters in Yangxiu Township, Biru County, Nagqu City, located within a humid mountain gorge; one side of the mountain is primarily covered by alpine shrubland, while the other is dominated by Juniperus tibetica .</p><p>Material examined: 1 male, “TU-02306 / Sapu Shenshan, <a href="https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=93.90417&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=31.135555" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long 93.90417/lat 31.135555)">Yangxiu</a> / <a href="https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=93.90417&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=31.135555" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long 93.90417/lat 31.135555)">Township</a>, Ru County, <a href="https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=93.90417&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=31.135555" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long 93.90417/lat 31.135555)">Nagchu</a> / <a href="https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=93.90417&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=31.135555" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long 93.90417/lat 31.135555)">City</a>, Xizang / N 31° 8' 8'' / E 93° 54' 15'' / 5.10.2024 h 4186m (coll.

Medial field outlined with faint brown antemedial line and light brown crenulate postmedial line; it has brown claviform spot with thin dark brown contour, blurred brown orbicular and reniform spots with thin dark brown contour. Terminal field outlined with faint wavy light-brown subterminal line; it has dark reddish-brown streaks between Rs4, M1, M2, M3, CuA1, CuA2, and CuP. Terminal line consists of dark brown crenulate streaks between veins. Cilia mottled brown. Hindwing subovoid with concave costal margin, rounded apex, wavy outer margin, obtuse tornal angle, and concave anal margin. Wing coloration mottled brown. Dark brown terminal line pronounced between veins. Cilia mottled with straw and brown scales. Female genitalia (Fig. 18). Papilla analis elongate, relatively heavily sclerotized, loosely covered with short setae. Posterior apophysis about twice as long as anterior apophysis. Vaginal plates absent. Antrum semioval, sclerotized, relatively shallow. Ductus bursae membranous, wrinkled, about 1.5 times shorter than appendix and corpus bursae together. Corpus bursae subspherical, membranous, twice as large appendix bursae, bears four long serrate longitudinal signa. Transition between appendix and corpus bursae sclerotized. Appendix bursae medially with area of heavy sclerotization. Male unknown.</p><p>Biology and Distribution (Fig. 19).
