Diagnosis. This species is similar to N. bellela Walker, 1863 (Plate IX-6), but can be distinguished by the following characters: the transverse central fascia of forewing is distinctly broad, slightly covered in the middle; the subapical area of the forewing has 7–8 radial striae that are pointed apically and do not exceed to the outer margin; each abdominal segment has a yellowish ring posteriorly; and the vinculum is relatively short, only about 2.2 × length of the valva.

Specimens examined. [ Sichuan] 2♁, Xindianzi, Yajiageng , Moxi Town , Luding County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture , 2019.VII.10, B. Chen & M. Deng leg. ( HUNAU) .

Distribution. China (Northern China, Sichuan); widely distributed in Asia, including Russian Siberia, Korea and Japan, and also in Northern Europe.

Remarks. This species has been collected for a long time in Northern Europe but was misidentified as N. degeerella until Kyrki (1981) revealed its true identity four decades ago. Kozlov (2004b) noted that the syntypes of this species (deposited in ZMHB) included two specimens of N. amatella and two specimens of N. degeerella . This species is very variable not only in external characters, including head color, the width of fascia, and length of apical yellow strips, but also in the melae genitalia, such as the shape of valva, uncus, and base of the aedeagus ( Kozlov 2004b). Currently, Kozlov (2023b) redescribed and reviewed this species with figures of adults and male genitalia. He noted that N. purpuratifera and/or some other species described by Sun et al. (2022) may appear junior synonyms of N. amatella .
