Roxita sp.

MATERIAL

1 ♂ (specimen identifier coll.mfn-berlin.de_u_a7fa3, DNA voucher MFNLEP-PYRALPHIL07-H07, genitalia on slide TL1057♂). PHILIPPINES: Leyte, Mount Balocaue, 719 m, 20-22.09.2011 (S. Naumann).

REMARKS

The unique male specimen of this species presumably belongs to a new species of Roxita . Unfortunately, much of the male genitalia was destroyed during the DNA extraction, so I decided not to formally describe this species but rather wait for additional material.
