Taxonomic Study of the Genus Glyphodes (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) from Laos

Taxonomic and Faunistic Results on the <i>Spilomelinae</i> Guenée, 1854 (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) from the Southern Arabian Peninsula with Descriptions of Three New Species

“…In G. caesalis the beak-shape in the uncus is absent [19]. The new species and G. onychinalis share the beak-shape in the uncus with Glyphodes actorionalis Walker, 1859 and Glyphodes vertuminalis Guenée, 1854 [19,22]. Yet, a longitudinal line pattern is absent in the forewings of each of these two species.…”

“…Remarks: It should be noted that there is no constant correlation between the forewing longitudinal line pattern shared by the new species, G. onychinalis and 6 further species of the genus and the shape of the uncus as shared by the new species and G. onychinalis. In G. caesalis the beak-shape in the uncus is absent [19]. The new species and G. onychinalis share the beak-shape in the uncus with Glyphodes actorionalis Walker, 1859 and Glyphodes vertuminalis Guenée, 1854 [19,22].…”

“…Further recent studies on the morphology of the genus based on small species samples have been in done in Park et al, in Ratikannu and Chitra, in Nagaharish et al and in Reddy and Murthy [19][20][21][22].…”
