Yunnan , Jiangcheng , 15–17.ix.2008 (coll. H.L. Han & M.J. Qi ) . Diagnosis. Stenoloba viridimicta ( Fig. 11 ) can be separated from S. chlolographa Kononenko & Ronkay, 2001 described from Nepal by larger size, robust body, and large thoracic tuft, narrow, rather long forewing with parallel costal and inner margins. Ground colour of forewing shiny, dark, brown grey mixed with somewhat bluish-grey and vivid green scales. Lower part of basal line sharply defined, white and blackish, upper part hardly traceable, base of wing and costal area brilliant mossy-green; antemedial line rather diffuse, orbicular spot hardly traceable, reniform stigma marked with dark dot and a more fine ochreous-yellow dots; claviform stigma substituted by black streak running from basal to antemedial line; costal area defined by thin long black streak running from medial field to outer margin of wing. In male genitalia ( Fig. 26 ) uncus rudimental, tegumen high, narrow; juxta deltoid, apically extended; valva long, wide at base, strongly tapered apically, with patch of small spines in the apex. Aedeagus large, vesica large, globular, with small diverticulum in distal part, armed with short small cornutus; medial part with longitudinal sclerotized crispate ribbon and with small, sparse field of cornuti. Female unknown. This rare species had been known from only a few specimens from North India . The record in South West China significantly extends its known distribution. Distribution. North India , South West China (Prov. Yunnan , first record).
