Ancylolomia westwoodi Zeller, 1863 Figs. 34, 94, 152. Ancylolomia westwoodi Zeller, 1863 b: 11. Type locality: Australia [Terra Vandiemenii] = Ancylolomia westwoodi bitubirosella Amsel, 1959 d: 11, text-fig. 2, pl. 1 fig. 1, pl. 3 fig. 4. Type locality: Iran, Balochistan, Iranshar, 800 m MATERIAL 2 ♂, 1 ♀ (detailed information in Table S1; https://doi.org/ 10.5061/dryad.b8gtht7mh). SIMILAR SPECIES Ancylolomia orchidea Bleszynski, 1970. DIAGNOSIS Characters of the male genitalia (Fig. 94) and female genitalia (Fig. 152) separate this species from A. orchidea. See diagnosis of A. orchidea. DISTRIBUTION AFGHANISTAN; AUSTRALIA; INDIA; INDONESIA: Java, Sumatra; MALAYSIA; PAKISTAN; PHILIPPINES: Luzon; SRI LANKA (Bleszynski, 1970b). Collected at an altitude of 250 m on the Philippines. DNA BARCODING The two specimens with sample numbers MFNLEP-PYRALPHIL07-E08 and MFNLEP-PYRALPHIL08-C12, both from Luzon, Zambales, diverge by p-dist=1.1% from each other. These two specimens show a divergence 7-9% with specimens of A. westwoodi on BOLD collected in Australia (see Fig. S2a), which is the type locality of the species. REMARKS Ancylolomia westwoodi is widespread all over the Oriental and Australasian regions (Bleszynski, 1970b) and probably represent a species complex rather than one single homogeneous species, as attested by analyses of the COI barcodes. This is the first record for the Philippines.
