Diagnosis.
Adult (
Fig. 26
) wingspan 18.0–25.0 mm.
Calamotropha sienkiewiczi
is diagnosed by the white forewing with the orange yellow medial fascia bearing yellowish brown speckle at costal margin and at middle respectively, and the yellow terminal margin with four black dots on posterior 2/5; in the male genitalia by the rectangular valva with two narrow sclerites apically and with a narrow fold extending from base to apex above the ventral margin, and the vesica with two sets of 19–20 spiniform cornuti (
Fig. 48
); in the female genitalia by the semicircular lamella postvaginalis and the slender elongate lamella postvaginalis 2/3 the length of the funnel-shaped antrum (
Fig. 68
). This species is similar to
C. bleszynskii
sp. nov.
and
C. parvispina
sp. nov.
, and the differences between them are stated in the diagnoses of the latter two species.

Remarks.
We found the female of
C. multicornuella
Chen & Song, 2002
to be identical to that of
C. sienkiewiczi
Bleszynski, 1961
and the male was different from it. As stated in the remarks of
C. bleszynskii
sp. nov.
, the male of
C. sienkiewiczi
Bleszynski (1961)
was described as
C. bleszynskii
sp. nov.
Here we propose
C. multicornuella
as a synonym of
C. sienkiewiczi
, and the male in
C. multicornuella
was actually the male of
C. sienkiewiczi
.
