Lepidoptera DNA barcodes Hiroshiinoueana wuzhishanica sp. nov. Hiroshiinoueana inequivalva Olethreutini taxonomy

Abstract

The genus Hiroshiinoueana Kawabe, 1978 is recorded from China for the first time. Two new species, H. wuzhishanica sp. nov. and H. inequivalva sp. nov., are described and illustrated. A key to the species of Hiroshiinoueana is provided. Cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences of the new species are deposited in GenBank.
