P. ochreipennis ( Fig. 13 ) is somewhat smaller than P. flavomacula , wingspan 18–21 mm . Externally it differs from P. flavomacula by pale yellow ground colour (pale lilaceous grey in P. flavomacula ), usually irrorated with ochreous brown, by shape of antemedial line, not edged outsides by whitish line as in flavomacula and postmedial line, which is excurved from costa to vein 6 (obliquely straight in P. flavomacula ), angled there and thence evenly incurved, not edged outsides with whitish like in P. flavomacula . In male genitalia P. ochreipennis ( Fig. 24 ) differs from P. flavomacula in having much massive and developed costal process of valva, shorter (2/3 length of valva) and more acute caudal extension of sacculus and differently shaped juxta, longer, thinner and not apically bifurcate (like in P. flavomacula ) uncus. Structure of vesica is similar to P. flavomacula , but it bearing three diverticula; large cornuti are more massive that in P. flavomacula . In female genitalia, P. ochreipennis ( Fig. 34 ) differs from P. flavomacula by presence of antevaginal plate, wider and much shorter ductus bursa, presence of sclerotized patch in caudal part of bursae and by shape of bursae. Distribution and biology. ( Fig. 43 ). Manchurian, nemoral. Far East (Amur, S Khabarovsk and Primorye terr.), China , Korea , Japan ( Sugi 1982 ; Kononenko 1990 , 2005 ; Kononenko et al. 1998 ; Kononenko & Han 2007 ). Mesophilous species, occurs sympatric with preceding species in similar biotopes. The moth flies from mid June to end of July. The larva and its foodplants are unknown. Notes. The species is reported from China for the first time.
