D86682419AB9576889171467FFFB4587.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The new species is similar to Pelecystola strigosa in its venation, forewing pattern, and paired plume-like signa in the female genitalia, but the new species can be easily distinguished from the latter by genital morphology: the subovate valva has an elongated rod-like basal process on ventral margin in the male genitalia, and the simple eighth sternite is not folded ventrad in the female genitalia. In P. strigosa, the divided valva has a pedunculate pectinifer arising from base on costal margin in the male genitalia; and the eighth sternite is strongly folded and forming a tapered plate ventral to ostium in the female genitalia.	en	Yang, Lin-Lin, Li, Hou-Hun (2021): First report of the genus Pelecystola Meyrick (Lepidoptera, Tineidae) in China, with description of a new species.

Eighth tergite rectangular, posterior margin with sparse long setae, slightly concave at anterior middle; eighth sternite straight on anterior margin, gently convex and with sparse long setae on posterior margin. Anterior apophysis 0.6 x length of posterior apophysis. Ostium at center of eighth sternite, small, rounded. Antrum 2 / 7 length of ductus bursae (including antrum), cylindrical, triangularly concave on anterior end. Ductus bursae slightly longer than corpus bursae, slender, thin walled.
