    Genus <i>Hydredes</i> Volynkin & Matov, gen. n. <p> Type species: <i>Hydredes yakobsoni</i> Matov & Volynkin, <b>sp. n</b>.</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis</b>. The new genus differs from <i>Protarchanara</i> by <i>Photedes</i> -like habitus of adults (small moths, with short and wide forewings), absence of abdominal androconial brushes in males and conspicuous structures of the male and female genitalia. In the male genitalia, <i>Hydredes</i> can be distinguished from <i>Protarchanara</i> by the small and poorly separated cucullus, less sclerotised costa, ventral costal edge with a slight depression medially, costal process forming a right angle with costa, smaller penicular lobes; in the female genitalia, the appendix bursae possess a sclerotised plate.</p> <p> <b>Description</b>. Adult. Relatively small moths. Forewing short, wide, triangular. The wing colouration varies from brown or ochreous brown to pale yellow. Male genitalia. Uncus moderately long, thin, apically pointed; tegumen short, penicular lobes relatively small, rounded. Vinculum short, U-shaped. Valva elongate; clavus smooth; costa poorly sclerotised; costal process long, thin, apically pointed, form an acute angle with costa. Cucullus small, rounded, poorly separated. Corona present. Aedeagus moderately long, slightly curved; vesica with one or two large claw-like cornuti. Female genitalia. Ovipositor weakly sclerotised, pointed. Apophyses anteriores and posteriores thin, long. Antrum broad, with thin sclerotised margin. Ductus bursae short, membranous, its anterior part is sclerotised. Corpus bursae very long, narrow, membranous; its posterior part is sclerotised. Appendix bursae broad, bulbous, strongly sclerotised, ventrally with strongly sclerotised semilunar plate.</p> <p> <b>Etymology</b>. The genus name is a combination of the generic names <i>Hydraecia</i> Guenée, 1841 and <i>Photedes</i> Lederer, 1857.</p>Published as part of <i>Volynkin, Anton V., Matov, Alexej Yu., Gyulai, Péter & Behounek, Gottfried, 2014, A revision of the genus Protarchanara Beck, 1999 with description of a new genus and three new species (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Xyleninae), pp. 165-178 in Zootaxa 3755 (2)</i> on page 166, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3755.2.3, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/228345">http://zenodo.org/record/228345</a&gt

    Acronicta digna species-complex The species-complex belongs to the subgenus Viminia Chapman. Its members are medium-sized moths with wing pattern resembling that of members of the A. (Viminia) lutea Bremer & Grey species-group and some other Viminia species (e.g., Acronicta raphael Oberthür), but male genitalia are similar to those of the A. rumicis (Linnaeus) species-complex, and differ from the latter by a bilobate subbasal diverticulum and presence of only few cornuti in vesica (whereas in the A. rumicis species-complex the subbasal diverticulum is simple, and vesica with a large cluster of spine-like cornuti). The species-complex includes two species, A. digna and A. metaxantha, stat. rev., bona sp.Published as part of Volynkin, Anton V., Matov, Alexej Yu. & Han, Hui-Lin, 2017, On the taxonomy of the genus Acronicta (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae).
