4D2E3BA11C91E401BDD46CCCDD8EA0DF.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The new species is similar to Promalactis manoi Fujisawa, 2002. It can be separated by the left sacculus with distal process bifurcate, the right sacculus with distal process slender and curved ventrad, and the aedeagus with one cornutus in the male genitalia. In Promalactis manoi, the distal process of the left sacculus is not bifurcate, the distal process of the right sacculus is broad and curved dorsad, and the aedeagus has two cornuti.	en	Du, Zhaohui, Wang, Shuxia (2013): Genus Promalactis Meyrick (Lepidoptera, Oecophoridae) from China: Descriptions of twelve new species.

In Promalactis trapezia, the forewing has no white spot on termen; the gnathos is somewhat trapezoidal, the valva has some strong dorso-apical spines and the cornutus is a single spine.	en	Du, Zhaohui, Wang, Shuxia (2013): Genus Promalactis Meyrick (Lepidoptera, Oecophoridae) from China: Descriptions of twelve new species.

71861CC438921826AEF87D57C9BC14A7.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. This species is extremely similar to Promalactis serpenticapitata sp. n. It can be separated by the gnathos with a triangular subapical process ventrally, the distal process of the sacculus with a small dentate dorso-medial process, the juxta with a bundle of setae and short spines in distal 1 / 3, and the cornutus about 2 / 3 length of aedeagus in the male genitalia. In Promalactis serpenticapitata sp. n., the gnathos has a snake head-shaped subapical process ventrally, the distal process of the sacculus lacks the dorso-medial process, the juxta has a bundle of setae and short spines in distal 7 / 10, and the cornutus is about 1 / 3 the length of the aedeagus. This species is also superficially similar to Promalactis dierli Lvovsky, 2000, but can be easily separated by the male genitalia with a symmetrical valva and the aedeagus with one cornutus. In Promalactis dierli, the valva is asymmetrical and the aedeagus has no cornutus in the male genitalia.	en	Du, Zhaohui, Wang, Shuxia (2013): Genus Promalactis Meyrick (Lepidoptera, Oecophoridae) from China: Descriptions of twelve new species.
