Abstract: The Barsine perpallida-B. yuennanensis species-group is reviewed. Six new
species, B. biformis Volynkin & Černý, sp. nov. (North Thailand and North
Vietnam), B. laszloi Volynkin & Černý, sp. nov. (Nepal), B. hausmanni
Volynkin & Černý, sp. nov. (North Thailand), B. andromeda Volynkin,
Černý & Huang, sp. nov. (China: Shaanxi and Sichuan), B. eurydice Volynkin
& Černý, sp. nov. (North Vietnam), and B. dao Volynkin, Černý &
Huang, sp. nov. (North Vietnam and China: Yunnan), are described. All species
treated are subdivided into five subgroups: B. biformis, B. perpallida, B.
flavicollis, B. hausmanni, and B. yuennanensis subgroups. Four new combinations
are established: Barsine hololeuca (Hampson, 1895), comb. nov., B. ruficollis
(Fang, 1991), comb. nov., Barsine nigrovena (Fang, 2000), comb. nov. (all three
from Miltochrista Hübner, [1819]), and B. flavicollis (Moore, 1878), comb. nov.
(from Mahavira Moore, 1878). A lectotype for Mahavira flavicollis Moore,
1878 is designated. One new synonymy is established: B. perpallida (Hampson,
1900) = Diacrisia porthesioides Rothschild, 1910, syn. nov. Adults, male and
female genitalia of all species are illustrated.
