(46) Nemophora magnifica Kozlov, 1997 View in CoL

(Plates V-6, XI-2, XVI-2)

Nemophora magnifica Kozlov, 1997e: 142 View in CoL , figs. 3, 4, 7, 18–22 (TL: China, Taiwan; USNM); Wang et al. 2000: 25; Hirowatari 2005a: 323, figs. 1K–L, 9, 15A–C (Ryukyus, Japan); Shao et al. 2008: 550 (Checklist of Taiwan); Hirowatari 2013: 107, fig. 3-08-16,17 ( Japan).

Diagnosis. This species differs from other members of the divina group by the narrow and continued W-shaped basal stria of the forewing, by the relatively short vinculum (ca. twice as long as valva), and by broad suspensorium far beyond the posterior margin of vinculum.

Specimen examined. [ Yunnan] 1♁, Bailongtan, Midu County, Dali City , 2017.VI.16, G.H. Huang & M. Wang leg. ( HUNAU) .

Distribution. China (Yunnan, Taiwan); Japan.

Remarks. This species was described by Kozlov (1997e) in Taiwan, China, and was placed in the divina species group with N. divina and N. assamensis . Hirowatari (2005a) reported this species in the Ryukyus with its male and female genitalia. The specimen from Yunnan in this paper shows a larger potential distribution in South China. In addition, Hirowatari (2005a) noted that body sizes from the Ryukyus (wing expanse: 15.0– 15.4 mm) are apparently smaller than those from Taiwan, China (18–21 mm). The body size of our specimen from Yunnan Province (20.3 mm) is similar to that from Taiwan.
