This species is extremely similar to X. insularis Ponomarenko & Beljaev superficially. But it only can be distinguished by the following genital characters: the valval harpe has three large thorns at apex in the male genitalia; the ductus bursae is over 2.5 times as long as corpus bursae in the female genitalia.

Labial palpus little upcurved, tuft on 2 nd and 3 rd segments, long erected gray scales, speckled with dark gray shortly before tip. Foreleg dark gray, irrorated with ocherous; midleg femur dark gray, irrorated with ocherous, tibia dark gray, irrorated with ocherous, yellow brown scales rounded anterior end, each segment of tarsus ocherous and sprinkled with dark gray posteriorly; hindleg femur ocherous, irrorated with dark brown at middle, posterior and anterior end with dark gray, tibia ocherous, tarsus pale ocherous, ringed with black gray at terminal.

Papilla analis semioval with hairs. Intersegmental membrane between papilla analis and 8 th segment as long as 8 th segment. Apophysis anterioris branched and as long as apophysis posterioris.

X. insularis Ponomarenko & Beljaev ; C. X. vaginata sp. n. ; D. X. triacantha sp. n. . Distribution . Korea . Host plant. Unknown. Etymology . This specific epithet is derived from the Greek prefix tria -, meaning three, and a specific name - acantha meaning “spike”, referring to the three thorns at valval harpe on the male genitalia.
