A new species of the Madagascan endemic genus Physodeutera Lacordaire, 1842 is described from northern Madagascar as Physodeutera (Microlepidia) propripenis sp. nov. The new species is compared to similar Physodeutera (Microlepidia) marginemaculata (W. Horn, 1934) and Physodeutera (Microlepidia) peyrierasi Rivalier, 1967. Apart from a detailed description of the new species, illustrations in colour photographs of its habitus, diagnostic characters and habitat are introduced. Differential diagnoses of the two similar species, as well as illustrations of their habitus and distinguishing characters in colour photographs are presented with references to their redescriptions and illustrations based on type and other relevant specimens in the monograph of the genus (Moravec 2002a). A revised key to the subgenus Microlepidia Rivalier, 1967 is presented in order to supplement the key previously published in the monograph. Essential maps of the distribution of the three species are also given.
一种来自马达加斯加北部的新的马岛特有属 Physodeutera Lacordaire，1842 种被描述为 Physodeutera（Microlepidia）propripenis sp. nov。该新种与相似的 Physodeutera（Microlepidia）marginemaculata（W. Horn，1934）和 Physodeutera（Microlepidia）peyrierasi Rivalier，1967 进行了比较。除了对新种的详细描述外，还介绍了其生境、诊断特征和生境的彩色照片插图。对这两个相似种进行了鉴别诊断，并附有它们的彩色照片生境和鉴别特征的插图，参考了它们基于模式和其他相关标本的重新描述和插图，这些标本收录在该属的专论中（Moravec 2002a）。为了补充专论中以前发表的关键内容，提出了修订后的 Microlepidia Rivalier，1967 亚属关键内容。还给出了这三个物种分布的基本地图。
