Diagnosis. Forewing length is 10.5–12 mm in males and 12.5 mm in females. This and next three species form a complex of species, which have very similar male and female genitalia, but different appearance. Barsine multistriata differs externally from B. eos sp. n. by its larger size and more elongated forewing; multistriata differs from B. terminifusca by its thinner pattern elements, less wavy medial line, the absence of blackish shades outside the postmedial line, and the thin longitudinal strokes on veins in the subterminal area of forewing, which are stretched along the whole subterminal area (in B. terminifusca , the longitudinal strokes are shorter and more diffuse, situated only in the medial part of the subterminal area); multistriata differs from B. conformis by its slightly smaller size, creamy white wing coloration (that is pale yellow in B. conformis ), the thin longitudinal strokes on veins in the subterminal area of forewing, which are stretched along the whole subterminal area (in B. conformis , the longitudinal strokes are broader, more diffuse and do not reach the outer wing margin). The male genitalia of B. multistriata differ from those of all other relatives by the broad and globular ventral subbasal diverticulum. The female genitalia of B. multistriata differ from those of B. eos sp. n. by the stronger spinulose scobination of the corpus bursae and the appendix bursae; from B. terminifusca by the slightly larger antrum and the stronger spinulose scobination of the corpus bursae and the appendix bursae.

Distribution. North-East India (Meghalaya, Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh) ( Kirti & Singh 2016), Myanmar and West China (Xizang).
