Type species: Thecobathra acropercna Meyrick, 1922 .</p><p>Pseudocalantica Friese, 1960: 36 . Type species: Niphonympha anas Stringer, 1930 .</p><p>Generic characters. Head with appressed scales on frons and with long rough scales between antennae. Antenna filiform. Labial palpus smooth, third segment longer than second segment. Thorax with developed patagium in males of some species. Forewing usually white, with an ovate subhyaline patch between vein Sc and cell; 13-veined, R 1 bent at base, R 1 and R 2 free, R 3, R 4 and R 5 free or stalked, M 3 and CuA 1 approximated at base or stalked, 1A+2A forming a long basal fork, accessory cell absent. Hindwing 10-veined, M 3 and CuA 1 stalked or arising from same point.</p><p>Male genitalia: Uncus small, produced posteromedially, with deep incision in middle. Socius from slender to wide, ending in point. Gnathos fused with tuba anales, forming a subscaphium; gnathal arm obsolete; ventral plate membranous or sclerotized. Valva broad, with long hair ventrally. Sacculus relatively short, varied in shape. Saccus elongate, Y-shaped posteriorly in most species. Aedeagus with one or two rows of distinct teeth; cornuti present.</p><p>Female genitalia:Apophyses posteriores much longer than apophyses anteriores; apophyses anteriores branched basally. Ostium bursae widely open. Antrum heavily sclerotized. Ductus bursae partly sclerotized. Corpus bursae membranous; signum usually a narrow plate with large lateral flange at each side.</p><p>Diagnosis. Thecobathra is similar to Niphonympha Meyrick, 1914 in having a white-grounded forewing. It can be distinguished by the forewing with R 1 bent at base, the saccus usually Y-shaped posteriorly, and the aedeagus with one or two rows of teeth. In Niphonympha, R 1 is almost straight, the rod-shaped saccus is not well divided posteriorly, and the aedeagus is absent of rows of teeth.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/223987C00F11FFD8FF4C6FF6FCC1FA6C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Thecobathra albana is diagnosed in the male genitalia by the wide subscaphium subparallelly sided and the spatulate ventral plate of the gnathos (Fig. 11); in the female genitalia by the subrectangular lamella postvaginalis and the signum concave in C shape posteriorly (Fig. 23). It is similar to T. acrivalvata Fan, Jin et Li, 2008 in male genitalia, and the differences between them are stated in the diagnosis of the latter species.</p><p>Distribution. China (Fujian, Guangxi, Hainan, Jiangxi, Taiwan, Zhejiang).</p><p>Remarks. Sohn (2018) described T. minuta from Taiwan, China. We found the morphological characters of T. minuta identical to those of T. albana Liu, 1980 based on the specimens examined during this study. Hence we propose T. minuta should be a synonym of T. albana .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/223987C00F13FFDDFF4C6A08FD28FAA3	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Ventral plate of gnathos small, slightly widened, sclerotized on anterior margin. Valva narrowed from near base to obtused apex, obtusely produced near base on ventral margin; dorsoproximal process large, subquadrate; inner process small, triangular, with ridge extending from its outer corner of base to middle of costa; basal plate wedge-shaped, gradually narrowed, extending from base of valva to basal 1/4 above ventral margin; costa band-shaped, concave medially, narrowed distally. Sacculus indistinct. Saccus broadly V-shaped posteriorly, slightly narrowed to rounded apex. Aedeagus about 1.7 times length of saccus, with a row of teeth along distal 3/4.</p><p>Female genitalia (Fig. 24). Papillae anales long and narrow, with long setae. Apophyses anteriores about 1/2 length of apophyses posteriors. Ventral arms of apophyses anteriores connected with lamella postvaginalis. Lamella postvaginalis lunate, with long setae.

Corpus bursae rounded; signum gradually narrowed to middle length, anterior half almost uniformly slender, lateral flange horn-shaped.</p><p>Distribution. China (Guangxi).</p><p>Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from the Latin cuneatus, referring to the wedge-shaped basal plate of the valva.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/223987C00F15FFDFFF4C68D9FEE1FC87	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Thecobathra lambda is diagnosed in the male genitalia by the valva narrowly parallel-sided in the basal half and slightly dilated in the distal half, and with a dentate ridge running from near base to middle half (Fig. 13); in the female genitalia by the subdigitate lamella postvaginalis slightly widened and setose distally, and has a small hump (Fig. 25).</p><p>Distribution. Widely distributed in China (Anhui, Chongqing, Fujian, Gansu, Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Hainan, Henan, Hong Kong, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Taiwan, Zhejiang), Thailand.</p><p>Remarks. Thecobathra taiwanensis Sohn, 2018 was described from a female. The morphological characters of the adult and the female genitalia of the species agree with those of T. lambda .

Ventral plate of gnathos small, tongue-shaped, weakly sclerotized. Valva wide at base, narrowed to obtusely rounded apex; costa narrow, banded, convex near base; dorsoproximal process quadrate; inner process elongate, gradually narrowed toward tip; basal plate triangular, extending from inner corner of dorsoproximal process to below basal 1/6 of costa. Sacculus small, triangular. Saccus with posterior 1/3 V-shaped, anterior 2/3 rod-shaped, slightly narrowed to obtusely rounded apex.

It can be distinguished by the dorsoproximal process of the valva with a long spine extending inward and curved at distal 1/3, and the aedeagus with the longer row of teeth running from before middle to apex. In T. tetragona, the dorsoproximal process of the valva has a short straight spine, and the aedeagus has the longer row of teeth running from basal 1/4 to apex (Liu 1983: 80, fig. 1).</p><p>Description. Adult (Fig. 8). Wingspan 18.0 mm.</p><p>Head white. Antenna white, flagellum ringed with pale yellow dorsally.
