Revision of the genus Hemopsis Kirti & Rose, 1987 (Lepidoptera, Crambidae), with descriptions of three new species from China
The genus <i>Hemopsis</i> is revised based on adult morphological characteristics and DNA barcodes. <i>Hemopsisabstracta</i> <b>sp. nov.</b>, <i>H.coalita</i> <b>sp. nov.</b>, and <i>H.heteroidea</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> are described as new to science, and <i>Hemopsisdissipatalis</i> (Lederer, 1863) is DNA barcoded and redescribed based on new material from southern China. A key to <i>Hemopsis</i> species is given based on external morphology of adults and their genitalia characteristics. Images of adults and genitalia are provided.
