Abstract

Crambus duospineus Li, sp. n. is described from Jiangxi Province, China. The new species can be diagnosed by the sacculus of male genitalia with a strongly sclerotized apex, ending with two spine-like projections, and the well-developed apical spine of the phallus is approximate half as long as the phallus. Images of the head, habitus, and male genitalia of Crambus bipartellus South, 1901 are provided for comparison.
