Xue, D. and L., Cui., & N. Jiang. 2018. A review of Problepsis Lederer, 1853 (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) from China, with description of two new species. Zootaxa 4392 (1): 101–127. Fig. 15-17

The only discrepancy is that the FW ocellus is not round. However, there are examples of individuals on iNat that are not round, and Sue & Cue mention that this is variable in conjunctiva.
GI: I think we can publish it as Problepsis conjuctiva
