Revision of the Palaearctic and Oriental species of Naarda Walker (Lepidoptera: Erebidae, Hypeninae). Part 4. Description of nine new species

“…Diagnosis. Specimens of this taxon had been identified as Naarda ochronota Wileman, 1915 for several years (see e.g. Tóth and Ronkay, 2014a: fig.…”

“…Before this series of articles 29 Oriental and Palaearctic species were described by Walker (1858Walker ( , 1859Walker ( , 1866, Hampson (1891Hampson ( , 1893Hampson ( , 1902Hampson ( , 1912, Staudinger (1892), Wileman (1915), Strand (1920), Prout (1928), de Joannis (1929, Sugi (1982), Holloway (2008) and Deng and Han (2011).
