    Genus Planovalvata Dubatolov & Kishida, 2012 Planovalvata Dubatolov & Kishida in Dubatolov, Kishida & Wang, Tinea 22 (1): 39. Type species: Planovalvata confusa Volynkin, Dubatolov & Kishida, sp. nov. (= Stigmatophora roseivena sensu Dubatolov et al. (2012), neC Hampson (1894)). Taxonomic note. In the original description, Dubatolov & Kishida (Dubatolov et al. 2012) attributed the genus to "the series of Miltochrista -like genera" (Asura / Miltochrista complex by Holloway 2001), but according to the male genitalia structure (entire distal section of valve with a longitudinal zone of costally directed strong setae), it is related to the genus Eugoa Walker, [1858] and not to the Asura / Miltochrista complex. At present the genus Eugoa includes several groups of species with significantly different genital structures and some of them probably could be erected into separated genera. The generic/subgeneric structure of this group will be revised later by the authors. Diagnosis. Small moths with yellow forewing ground color and pattern consisting of red strokes on veins and along the costal margin. In the male genitalia, Planovalvata has the following apomorphic differences from the typical Eugoa (the type species Eugoa aequalis (Walker, [1858]) was illustrated by Holloway (2001) and Durante (2012)): 1) uncus is long, narrow and laterally flattened (whereas in Eugoa the uncus is short, dorso-ventrally spatula-like broadened); 2) tegumen without paratergal sclerites and dentate penicular lobes (whereas in Eugoa s. str. the tegumen with rounded paratergal sclerites and large irregularly dentate penicular lobes); 3) vinculum is very short (whereas in Eugoa the vinculum is longer); 4) distal part of the costal margin of valve is irregularly dentate (whereas in Eugoa the costal margin of valve is smooth). Female unknown.Published as part of Volynkin, Anton V., Dubatolov, Vladimir V. & Kishida, Yasunori, 2018, On the taxonomy of the genera Planovalvata Dubatolov & Kishida, Stigmatophora Staudinger and Pseudomiltochrista Dubatolov & Bucsek, with description of one new species (Lepidoptera, Erebidae, Arctiinae, Lithosiini), pp. 128-136 in Zootaxa 4394 (1) on page 129, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4394.1.7, http://zenodo.org/record/119698

    Chinasa Dubatolov, Volynkin & Kishida, gen. nov. Type species: Prabhasa costalis Moore, 1878. Eilema: Strand 1916: 114. Prabhasa: Daniel 1954: 126; Fang 2000: 244; Dubatolov & Zolotuhin 2011: 370. Description. Forewings with light costal margin and diffuse apical streak, and a dark brown postmedian costal spot. Costal Vein coVered with androconial scales in basal third. Male genitalia. Uncus broader than in treated genera aboVe, bent at base, with terminal denticle. ValVes broadly fused along basal margins; cucullus broad; aedeagus long, S-shaped, Vesica membranous, with elongate diVerticulum haVing a small finger-like subbasal subdiVerticulum. Female genitalia. Ductus bursae slightly sclerotized, dorso-Ventrally flattened, narrowed posteriorly; corpus bursae pear-like, membranous, without signa. Remarks. The new genus has a significant autapomorphic character: Ventral margins of ValVes are broadly fused (Figs. 32–35), for which reason during dissection it is impossible to place a male genital capsule on a slide in dorso-Ventral projection; this feature is Very rare in whole Lithosiina. HoweVer, the cucullus shape is similar to Macohasa, but Vesica shape is Very different in these genera. The shape of ValVe of Chinasa is also similar to that of “ Zadadra ” cucullata, but the latter has the not fused Ventral margins of ValVes and the heaVily sclerotized cucullus, and clearly is not congeneric to Chinasa species. We include in the new genus Chinasa two species, Chinese Chinasa costalis (Moore, 1878), comb. nov. with a distinct subspecies Chinasa costalis bicoloriceps (Strand, 1916), stat. et comb. nov. from Taiwan, and the new species Chinasa sapa DubatoloV, Volynkin & Kishida, sp. nov. from North Vietnam. Etymology. The genus name is a combination of the words 'China' and 'Prabhasa'. Gender is feminine.Published as part of Dubatolov, Vladimir V., Volynkin, Anton V. & Kishida, Yasunori, 2018, Review of the Prabhasa Moore, 1878 genus-group (Lepidoptera, Erebidae, Arctiinae), pp. 383-400 in Zootaxa 4407 (3) on page 392, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4407.3.6, http://zenodo.org/record/121661

    Barsura Volynkin, Dubatolov & Kishida 2017, gen. nov.

    No full text
    Barsura Volynkin, Dubatolov & Kishida, gen. nov. Type species: Barsine nubifascia Walker, [1865]. Diagnosis. Medium-sized moths, the male antennae are bipectinate, the female antennae are ciliate. Venation (Fig. 4) is similar to Barsine. Forewing pattern consists of dotted transverse lines in the subbasal and medial areas, and cuneal connected shadows in the subterminal area with longitudinal dark strokes on veins. Due to the presence of ventral costal, distal costal and distal saccular processes, the male genital capsule of Barsura (Figs. 1, 2) is also similar to Barsine (Figs. 25–31, 42–45, 55–58), but in Barsura the ventral costal process is situated subapically, whereas in the majority of Barsine the ventral costal process is situated more or less medially. Barsine umbrosa (Hampson, 1896) comb. nov. (Figs. 25, 26, 42, 55) is the only exception, for it has the genital capsule similar to Barsura species. However, its vesica structure and the female genitalia are typical for Barsine. The main differences of male genitalia of Barsura and Barsine are in the vesica structure: in Barsura it is unique for the Asura / Miltochrista generic complex, because it has a carinal plate with one or several thorns, the subbasal ventral diverticulum with a bunch of thorn-like cornuti, and two (apical and lateral) large fields of strong thorn-like cornuti of different sizes, whereas in Barsine (and related genera Cyme Felder and Nepita Moore) a number of diverticuli can vary in different species-groups, but there are fields of numerous small and very short cornuti only; in Asura, as member of which the species of Barsura were treated earlier (Hampson 1900, Daniel 1952, Fang 1993; 2000), the medial costal process is short and situated medially (whereas in Barsura it is situated subapically), and cornuti in vesica are spine-like and assembled into large bundles and bands. The female genitalia (Fig. 3) of the new genus is very characteristic and it clearly differs from those of all other related genera by the short ductus bursae with asymmetric lateral sclerotized folds, the very small corpus bursae subdivided into two asymmetric and heavily sclerotized lateral lobes, with numerous short spinules on inner surface, and a small, globular, weakly sclerotized anterior section with weak spine-like scobination. Etymology. The genus name is a combination of the generic names Barsine and Asura. Gender is feminine.Published as part of Volynkin, Anton V., Dubatolov, Vladimir V. & Kishida, Yasunori, 2017, Barsura Volynkin, Dubatolov & Kishida, gen. nov., with descriptions of three new species (Lepidoptera, Erebidae, Arctiinae) in Zootaxa 4299 (1), DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4299.1.2, http://zenodo.org/record/83507

Segestria komatsuana Komatsu, 1939: 101, pl. 5 (♀; name attributed to Kishida but never described by that author); Yaginuma, 1971: 27, pl. 5, f. 21 (♀). Segestria nipponica Yaginuma, 1986: 25, f. 16.6 (♂ ♀; synonymized with S. komatsuana); Chikuni, 1989: 25, f. 3 (♂); Ono, 2009: 99, f. 6–8 (♂). Material examined: 1♂ [photo of the palp], JAPAN, Ibaraki Pref., Hokyo-zan, Oda, Mt. Tsukuba-shi, 23.09.2018 (Yuya Suzuki). Diagnosis. This species is most similar to S. fengi sp. n. Both species have very similar bulbs: elongate, with bulbous basal part and bent tip of embolus. Male of S. nipponica differs from those of S. fengi sp. n. by thinner bulb (length/width ratio 2.63 vs. 2.17) and relatively larger palp segments (cf. Figs 6 A–C and 6D–F). Description. See Ono (2009). Comments. The species is not properly known. We had an opportunity to study only figures of male palp. A single record of S. senoculata (Linnaeus, 1758) from Japan (Boesenberg & Strand 1906) seems to refer to S. nipponica.Published as part of Fomichev, Alexander A. & Marusik, Yuri M., 2020, Notes on the spider genus Segestria Latreille, 1804 (Araneae: Segestriidae) in the East Palaearctic with description of three new species, pp. 330-346 in Zootaxa 4758 (2) on pages 343-344, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4758.2.7, http://zenodo.org/record/373453
