The specimen labelled as BC ZSM Lep 58655 has been used for barcoding. Molecular distance based on the Kimura two-parameter model for COI DNA barcodes between T . burmana and its nearest species T . glauca is 5,59%; the distance between T . burmana and T . naumanni is 6,26%. Diagnosis. Adult ( Figs 9–12 ). Wingspan 45–48 mm . The species externally is similar to T . naumanni and T . plumbea , but differs from both by bipectinate male antennae (serrate in T . naumanni and strongly pectinate in T . plumbea ), more intensive silver-grey with metallic shining colouration of forewing (grey without shining in T . naumanni or bronze-grey in T . plumbea ). It also differs from T . naumanni by having contrast white orbicular, outlined by black and from T . plumbea by less dentate ante- and postmedial lines. Hindwing colouration varies from grey with hardly traceable terminal band and discal spot to yellowish with grey dusting, with distinct terminal band and greyish-brown basal area. Male genitalia ( Fig. 92 ). Compared with related T . naumanni and T . plumbea by broader rounded uncus, narrover constricted apically valva, short harpe and thin aedeagus with unarmed vesica. Uncus short, broad, narrower medially and extended and rounded apically; tegumen twice higher than vinculum, bearing small penicular extensions; vinculum very large, V-shaped; transtilla with broad lobes bearing small spines; juxta shieldlike, broad, valva relatively short, broad basally, curved and prominently constricted apically, bearing a patch of strong setae on the tip sacculus narrow, harpe rather short, broad, almost straight, pointed apically. Aedeagus long, thin, slightly extended apically with carina bearing a patch of strong spines; vesica tubular, with subbasal and subapical diverticula, without cornuti. Female genitalia ( Fig. 122 ). Differs from other congeners by very small antrum and long ribbed dusctus bursae. Ovipositor quadrangular, papillae anales moderate broad; antrum very small, triangular, shallow, weakly sclerotised; ductus bursae long, moderate wide, sclerotised and ribbed; corpus bursae rounded, membranous, with small lateral extension in caudal part. Distribution and bionomy. East, Central, Southeast and Southwest China (Provs Fujian, Hunan, Guangxi, Sichuan), Myanmar . Moths fly in February, March, April, May, June, November.
