Ethmia anatiformis Kun, 2001: 208 View in CoL . TL: Nepal. TD: NHMUK.

Material examined. CHINA, Yunnan: 1♂, Mt. Ailao, Jingdong , 2476 m, 2.VII.2013, leg. SR Liu et al., slide No. ZXJ20107 ; Xizang: 1♂ 1♀, Zhangmu Town , Nielamu County, 1961 m, 8.VII.2019, leg. MJ Qi & JQ Deng, slide Nos. ZXJ20073 ♀, ZXJ20109 ♂.

Diagnosis. Adult ( Fig. 1 View FIGURES 1–4 ). Wingspan 30.5‒36.0 mm. Ethmia anatiformis is similar to E. maculata Sattler, 1967 . It can be distinguished superficially by the absence of a tadpole-shaped stripe on the fold of the forewing ( Fig. 1 View FIGURES 1–4 ). The male genitalia can be distinguished by the uncus bifurcate in the distal 3/5, and the cucullus with a papillary dorsoapical process shorter than the ventroapical process ( Fig. 10 View FIGURES 10–15 ). In E. maculata , the forewing has a tadpoleshaped stripe on the fold; the uncus is bifurcate in the distal 2/3, and the papillary dorsoapical process of the cucullus is longer than the ventroapical process ( Sattler 1967: 121, fig. 60).

Distribution. China ( Xizang, Yunnan), Nepal.

Notes. This species is recorded from China for the first time.
