Type material examined. Holotype (by monotypy) ( Figs 12 , 30 ): female, handwritten and printed label “ Byingyi | Upper Burma | 2000–3000 ft | Oct 1900 | Col. Bingham | 1901–507.” / handwritten label “ Ovipennis binghami type ♀ . Hmpsn ” / red ring “ Type ” label / QR-code label with unique ID: “ NHMUK010598105 ” ( NHMUK ). Diagnosis. The forewing length is 9.0 mm in the female holotype . Ovipennis binghami is most reminiscent of O. thomasi by sharing the broad blackish area of the hindwing, but can be distinguished from the latter by the slightly broader forewing and the smaller dark diffused subapical patch of the forewing. In female genitalia, the ductus bursae of O. binghami is somewhat longer and narrower, the corpus bursae is narrower with a shorter posterior sclerotised area, and the lateral sclerotised pocket of the corpus bursae is shorter and broader than the corresponding structures of O. thomasi . The male is unknown. Remarks. This species is only known from its holotype . The records of O. binghami from western and southwestern China and Thailand in fact refer to the females of O. bicolora Fang, 1986 and O. regina sp. n. , respectively. Distribution. Central Myanmar ( Mandalay Region ).
