The name Striatochrista nom. n. is introduced as replacement for Striatella Volynkin & S.-Y. Huang, 2019. A new genus, Letrasilta S.-Y. Huang & Volynkin gen. n. is erected to include the Striatella cernyi species-group with the new species, L. ratnasambhava S.-Y. Huang, Volynkin & Yin sp. n. from Xizang, southwestern China designated as the type species. Based on the molecular phylogenetic analysis, the new genus is found to be sister to the clade (Aberrasine + ((Indiania + Idopterum) + Striatochrista nom. n.)) but is distinguished from all the relevant genera by the unique genitalia features. Letrasilta cernyi (Volynkin, 2018) comb. n. is also reported from India for the first time. Adults and genitalia of the aforementioned taxa are illustrated. A checklist of the genus Striatochrista is also provided.
名称 Striatochrista nom. n. 被引入以取代 Striatella Volynkin & S.-Y. Huang, 2019。一个新的属,Letrasilta S.-Y. Huang & Volynkin gen. n. 被建立,以包括 Striatella cernyi 物种群,具有新的物种,L. ratnasambhava S.-Y. Huang, Volynkin & Yin sp. n. 来自中国西南部的西藏,被指定为模式种。基于分子系统发育分析,新属被发现与分支(Aberrasine + ((Indiania + Idopterum) + Striatochrista nom. n.))为姐妹关系,但与所有相关属的区别在于独特的生殖器特征。Letrasilta cernyi (Volynkin, 2018) comb. n. 也首次报道来自印度。上述分类单元的成虫和生殖器都有插图。还提供了 Striatochrista 属的清单。
