68697D64A231544FCCBFFF7AFC22FC0D.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Externally the new species is similar to P. argenta Solovyev & Saldaitis, but differs from the latter by the absence of silver scales and dark base on forewings. It is related to P. hoenei Solovyev & Saldaitis in male genitalia, but can be distinguished by the shorter length of the lobes of the uncus and the base of valva with an acute tornal corner. In the female genitalia, this new species is characterized by the longer ductus bursae and with the bisignate signum in the corpus bursae. In P. argenta Solovyev & Saldaitis and P. erlanga Solovyev & Saldaitis, the signa are composed of several small stellate sclerites. Forewing length 11.0 – 12.0 mm. Head white, with scattering of yellowish brown scales. Antenna yellowish brown, ringed with white hair at base. Labial palpus yellowish brown. Legs blackish brown to brown, a white spot at femur base, each tarsomere ringed with pale white; hind tibia with 2 pairs of spurs and with dense long hair; pretarsus black. Prothorax dark brown. Pterothorax white, with scattering of brown scales. Forewing with R 2 separated, R 3 - 5 stalked. Hindwing with M 1 and Rs stalked; Sc + R 1 anastomosed with anterior edge of cell near base. Forewing blackish brown; antemedial fascia indistinct; postmedial fascia consisting of series of white rounded spots and a discal spot; terminal area grayish white, with proximal border running from 3 / 4 costa almost to the tornus, with dark brown streak on costa; fringe brown, with rare tufts of white scales. Male genitalia (Figure 6). Uncus bilobed, horn-shaped, less than valva in length, each lobe same as distal part of valva in size and slightly curved; gnathos reduced to sclerotized band connecting both lobes of the uncus; valva square-shaped proximally, with acute tornal corner and with long sickle-shaped distal part; saccus short; aedeagus almost straight, with longitudinal incision running from aedeagus apex to basal third. Female genitalia (Figure 7). Ovipositor lobe flattened, foot-shaped; anterior apophysis short, triangular; posterior apophysis long and slender; vaginal plate large, spinulate; antrum short, strongly sclerotized; ductus bursae slightly spiraled, with pair of medial strongly sclerotized longitudinal ribbons; corpus bursae ovoid, with bisignate signum.

68697D64A2345448CCBFFF30FF26FAD2.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. This new species is related to S. brevisunca Wu & Fang, but differs from the latter by the forewing with a deeper dent at R 4 towards the base in the subterminal fascia and the black dot at middle of 1 A being indistinct or absent. The gnathos of this new species is much shorter than that of the latter. The juxta of the new species has a single lateral process. The new species differs from S. chalcites Orhant and S. ocellata Moore by the short forks of the uncus and the shape of the juxta in the male genitalia. Forewing length 18.0 – 21.0 mm. Body pale yellowish brown. Head yellowish brown. Antenna and labial palpus yellowish brown. Thorax and anterior 2 segments of abdomen with a longitudinal row of hair tufts. Anal hair tuft black. Forewing pale yellowish brown mixed with fine black dots, lighter towards outer margin; on outside of cell, a lustrous rounded patch bluish black inside and reddish brown outside, crossed by a light transverse line; black dot at middle of 1 A indistinct or absent; subterminal fascia fine, black, bearing a deep dent at R 4 towards base. Hindwing yellowish brown to dark brown. Male genitalia (Figure 9). Uncus relatively longer than S. brevisunca Wu & Fang, apically with a pair of shorter forks; gnathos thick, much shorter than uncus, apex blunt; valva relatively narrow and long, tapering to a rounded apex; juxta large, only with a single lateral process, narrow and long; aedeagus thin and straight, with a small spine at end. Female genitalia (Figure 10). Ovipositor lobes flattened, foot-shaped; anterior apophysis short, about half length of posterior apophysis; posterior apophysis long and slender; vaginal plate large, densely with minute hairs; antrum broadly funnel-shaped; ductus bursae long, slightly spiraled; corpus bursae large, rounded; signum bisignate, with minute spines.

68697D64A2345448CCBFFF30FF26FAD2.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The name is derived from Greek “ monos ” (= single), corresponding to a single lateral process on the juxta.	en	Pan, Zhaohui, Wu, Chunsheng (2015): New and little known Limacodidae (Lepidoptera) from Xizang, China.

68697D64A2345448CCBFFF30FF26FAD2.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Prior to the present study the genus Squamosa Bethune-Baker contained four known species from New Guinea and Southern Asia. Although the female was described in Orhant (2000) for S. chalcites and the species S. ocellata is described based on the female, the female genitalia are described for the first time in the genus.	en	Pan, Zhaohui, Wu, Chunsheng (2015): New and little known Limacodidae (Lepidoptera) from Xizang, China.
