The genus Encolapta Meyrick, 1913 is superficially similar to Hypatima Hübner [1825] , but it can be separated by the abdominal tergite VIII with a simple sclerotized, banded or semi-elliptical plate and the valvella without apical thorn in male. The genus comprises 17 species, mostly distributed in Asia ( Yang & Li 2016). In Korea, three species of the genus Encolapta have been known: E. catarina ( Ponomarenko, 1994) , E. tegulifera ( Meyrick, 1932) . and T. subtegulifera ( Ponomarenko, 1994) .
