Remark.
The genital preparation of the
holotype
is lost.
Diagnosis
. Forewing length is
12–14 mm
in males and
14–15 mm
in females.
Barsine conformis
differs externally from its relatives,
B. multistriata
,
B. eos
sp. n.
and
B. terminifusca
by its slightly larger size and pale yellow wing coloration. The male genitalia of
B. conformis
are most similar to those of
B. eos
sp. n.
due to the broad valva and its elongated distal section, but differ by the valva being slightly broader medially, slightly shorter medial costal process, slightly broader distal costal process, sacculus being more weakly setose, and slightly smaller ventral and dorsal subbasal diverticula. The female genitalia of
B. conformis
differ from those of
B. multistriata
,
B. eos
sp. n.
and
B. terminifusca
by their broader corpus bursae with larger signum and broader appendix bursae.
