Other Suerkenola spp. –
Suerkenola sublongiventris Shao & Han, 2010, Tinea 21 (3): 119 TL : Yunnan (China)
SS: Agree with Suerkenola longiventris (Poujade, 1886)
Diagnosis to separate from Suerkenola sublongiventris Shao & Han, 2010. This species is very similar to S. longiventris (Poujade, 1886), but can be distinguished by: ground color of forewing rather light; basal part of inner margin as same as that of costa; antemedial line light; median region rather densely and consecutively colored; hindwing rather thick; discal spot misted. Major differences are in genitalia structures (Table 1).
Similar species: Barasa costalis Hampson, 1895
