THREE NEW SPECIES OF CRAMBINAE (LEPIDOPTERA: PYRALIDAE) IN CHINA

Abstract Three new species of Crambinae from China, Eschata truncata Song & Chen, sp. nov., Eschata tricomia Song & Chen, sp. nov., Pseudargyria acuta Song & Chen, sp. nov. and the female of Girdharia tau-tomma Kapur are described, with figures and illustrations of genitalia provided. E. truncata resembles E. smithi Bleszynski, but valva with one short truncated process in costa; E. tricomia differed from all recorded species by valva with a triangular process on dorsum; P. acuta resembles P. marginepunctalis (Hampson), but with cucullus rapidly pointed and aedeagus with one group of comuti. E. bleszynskieila Minet is proposed as a junior synonym of E. shanghaiensis Wang & Sung.
