Aspöck & H. Aspöck, 1981 Asadeteva U. Aspöck & H. Aspöck, 1981: 8 . Type species: Asadeteva vartianorum U. Aspöck & H. Aspöck, 1981: 9 (original designation). Generic characters. The adults of Asadeteva are characterized by the following characters: the antennal scape as long as proximal four to five flagellomeres; the female forewing, hindwing and legs with scales on basal parts; the forewing strongly falcate and with dark brown spots on branching points of some longitudinal veins and along almost entire wing margin; the hindwing without gradate series of crossveins or with only few crossveins; the male tergum 9 + ectoprocts tapering posteroventrally, bearing a tuft of spinous setae; the complex of male gonocoxites 9 with a rod-like basal part and a broad terminal part, which is densely covered with minute setae; the complex of male fused gonocoxites, gonapophyses and gonostyli 10 (= paramere-mediuncus complex) comprising a basal sclerite, which is posteriorly and laterally produced at middle in ventral view, laterally with a pair of ovoid lobes, and a bow-shaped structure formed by bundled bristles (hereafter often referred to as a bristle bow); and the male fused gonocoxites 11 (= gonarcus) forming a small band-like arch, fused with the gonocoxites 9. Distribution. Afghanistan ; India ; Laos ; Pakistan ; Thailand . Notes. This genus previously included only two species: Asadeteva afghana U. Aspöck & H. Aspöck, 1981 , and Asadeteva vartianorum U. Aspöck & H. Aspöck, 1981 , from Afghanistan and Pakistan , respectively (U. Aspöck & Randolf 2014 ). In addition, an undetermined species of this genus was recorded from northwestern India (U. Aspöck & Randolf 2014 ). Notably, all records are confined to the Palaearctic region, while the presently described species represents the first record of Asadeteva from the Oriental region.
