C82487BBFFCC0028489A33FFCF87FB33.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The presence of rows of spines in the bursa copulatrix indicates that this species belongs to the fletcherata species group (Bolte 1990). This species is very similar to other long-winged species in this group with an elongate discal dot, such as E. quadripunctata, and is probably only reliably distinguishable by the genitalia. The female genitalia are very characteristic and could not be confused with the genitalia of any other species of the genus.	en	Mironov, Vladimir, Šumpich, Jan (2022): New species of the genus Eupithecia (Lepidoptera, Geometridae) from China Part IX.

C82487BBFFCC002B489A37D3CE8DFE43.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. This species belongs to the proterva species group (Inoue 1979; Mironov & Galsworthy 2014) on the basis of the structure of the female genitalia, in particular the characteristic attachment of the ductus seminalis at the spineless anterior end of the bursa. The worn nature of the holotype offers little external help in distinguishing the species from other members of the group, except for the concave termen of the hindwing, which is similar to that in E. clavifera. The female genitalia are very characteristic and rather similar to those of Eupithecia signigera Butler, 1879. However, the bursa copulatrix is larger and broader, the disposition of the spines differs and there is a heavily sclerotized rounded projection in the posterior part of the bursa.	en	Mironov, Vladimir, Šumpich, Jan (2022): New species of the genus Eupithecia (Lepidoptera, Geometridae) from China Part IX.

The holotype is worn, but the elongate discal dot and the narrow hind wings with a concave termen give it a distinctive appearance. The female genitalia are rather similar to those of Eupithecia amicula Mironov & Galsworthy, 2004, but can be distinguished by the position and shape of the spines in the bursa copulatrix and also by the shape of the eighth tergite. The genitalia are very distinctive and could not be confused with genitalia of any other Asian species of the genus.	en	Mironov, Vladimir, Šumpich, Jan (2022): New species of the genus Eupithecia (Lepidoptera, Geometridae) from China Part IX.
