Abstract
The costaemaculella species group of Agonopterix is reviewed. Six species are recognized: A. costaemaculella (Christoph, 1882), A. leptopa (Diakonoff, 1952), A. burmana Lvovsky, 1998, stat. rev., A. likiangella sp. nov., A. ventrangulata sp. nov. and A. hoenei sp. nov. Agonopterix burmana and A. leptopa, previously known only from Myanmar (Burma), are newly recorded from China. Images of the adults and illustration of the genitalia are provided, along with a key to the species of the costaemaculella group.
