Diagnosis.
Adult (
Fig. 7
) wingspan 9.0̄
9.5 mm
. The male genitalia of
S. quercivora
(
Fig. 15
) are characterized by the tegumen narrowly rounded at the top, the costa of the valva slightly concave, and the neck of the valva about 2/3 the width of the valva at the base.
Strophedra quercivora
is similar to
S. dicastica
(Meyrick, 1922)
with the tegumen bearing a pair of long ovate flaps on its lateral wall and with a semicircular cucullus in the male genitalia. However, in
S. quercivora
the ventro-basal corner of the cucullus is obtusely angled, whereas it is smooth in
S. dicastica
(
Clarke 1958: pl. 280, fig. 1a
). Superficially,
S. quercivora
can be distinguished from
S. dicastica
by the forewing lacking a leaden streak from below the seventh pair of strigulae, which is present in
S. dicastica
.
