( Coll. AFM).   Diagnosis. Forewing length is 17.5– 18 mmin males (17.5 mm in the holotype) and 20.5– 21 mmin females. Thiswestern subspecies ( Figs 3, 4) differs from the nominate one described from Guangdong Province( South China) ( Fig. 5) by its forewing longitudinal shade being slightly paler and not broadened medially, the absence of dark grey suffusion along the Rvein subbasally, and the shorter blackish subbasal line on forewing costa. The male genitalia of the two subspecies are very similar ( Figs 17–19), but in G. n. dytiko ssp. n.the tip and dorsal lobe of the distal saccular process are slightly larger, and the distal carinal process of aedeagus is less prominent. Female genitalia of the nominate subspecies are unknown. Differences between the female genitalia of G. n. dytiko ssp. n.( Fig. 32) and the closely related  G. dammay  sp. n.( Fig. 33) are listed in the ‘Diagnosis’ chapter of the latter species.   Distribution. The subspecies is known from southwestern China, Sichuan Province.   Etymology. In Greek, ‘δυτικό’ means ‘western’. 1999-07-07 1999-07-08 1999-07-07 ZSM, MWM Sinaev & Arct. & Volynkin & Coll.
