Diagnosis. This species differs from other species of the aurifera group by the absence of longitudinal yellow stripe near costal margin of forewing base. In addition, this species also similar to N. tancrei but can be distinguished by the matt frons, longer labial palpus and larger interocular index ( Kozlov 2023c).

Specimens examined. Not available in this study.

Distribution. China (Taiwan); India, Pakistan.

Remarks. Kozlov (2023c) reported one male specimen of this species from Taiwan, China in USNM when he reviewed the fauna of the genus Nemophora of India and Sri Lanka. In addition, Kozlov (2023c) noted that this species was common at 2,100 m elevation and the adults were mostly observed around Mentha spicata (Lamiaceae) .
