Pseudocaissa marvelosa (Yoshimoto, 1994)
Hampsoniella[sic] marvelosa Yoshimoto, 1994; Tinea 14 (Suppl. 1): 88, pl. 82, f. 17; TL: Janakpur, Jiri.
Pseudocaissa marvelosa; Solovyev & Witt, 2009, Entomofauna Suppl. 16: 88 (note); Pan & Wu, 2015, Zootaxa 3999 (3): 396
Pseudocaissa Solovyev & Witt, 2009 species known globally.
Pseudocaissa apiata Solovyev & Witt, 2009. N. Vietnam.
Pseudocaissa marvelosa (Yoshimoto, 1994). Nepal.
Diagnosis. The species, Pseudocaissa apiata, is distinguished from P. marvelosa (Yoshimoto, 1994) externally by the location of a spot of the postmedial fascia near costa; it is more distant from apical spot. In male genitalia, the rounded and distally widened valvae with small saccular processes, and juxta with two apical spiny processes are diagnostic.
In this individual, location of the spot of the postmedial fascia is near apical costal white. It is either this species, or probably a new species of Pseudocaissa.
