Diagnosis
. Forewing length is
10.5–11 mm
in males and
12–12.5 mm
in females.
Barsine kuatunensis
is externally very similar to the allopatric
B. takamukui
and can be differed from it by the genitalia structure only. The male genitalia of
B. kuatunensis
differ from those of
B. takamukui
by the valva being broader distally, the basally broader medial costal process, the slightly larger ventral diverticulum, and the presence of a medial row of small cornuti in vesica. The female genitalia of
B. kuatunensis
differ from those of
B. takamukui
by their slightly larger corpus bursae having signum (that is absent in
B. takamukui
), and smaller appendix bursae.
Distribution
. South
China
(
Sichuan
,
Fujian
,
Guangdong
) (
Fang 2000
;
Kishida 2011
) and North
Vietnam
