Diagnosis. Stenoloba plumbeoculata is a characteristic species of S. rufosagitta species-group with forewing with parallel costal and ventral margins and rounded terminal margin, reddish-brown head and thorax and wing pattern represented by reddish-brown with white bordering antemedial field and clear orange-brown subtornal stroke on plumbeous greyish-brown background. The male genitalia described by Pekarsky et al. (2013). The female genitalia ( Fig. 57 ) could be characterized by rather small cup-like antrum, with v-like proximal end of antrum sclerotised plate; sclerotised proximal part of ductus bursae and extended, slightly sclerosised anterior part of corous bursae with large sclerotised appendix.

Distribution. South and Southwest China (Prov. Fujian, Prov. Guangdong, Prov. Yunnan, Prov. Sichuan). New data considerable extend the distribution pattern of S. plumbeoculata in China.
