title: Taxonomic study of the genus Glyphipterix Hübner (Lepidoptera: Glyphipterigidae: Glyphipteriginae) from Mainland China.
abstract: The genus Glyphipterix Hübner is reviewed in mainland China, with eight species and one subspecies treated. Glyphipterix semicircularis sp. nov., G. liui sp. nov., and G. miniata continentalis ssp. nov. are described as new to science. Glyphipterix gamma Moriuti et Saito, 1964, G. regula Diakonoff et Arita, 1976, and G. gemmula Diakonoff et Arita, 1976 are firstly recorded from mainland China. The male of G. rhinoceropa Meyrick, 1935 is described for the first time. Glyphipterix aritai nom. nov. is proposed for a junior homonym G. affinis Arita, 1995. Photographs of adults and genitalia are provided, along with keys for the identification of all the Glyphipterix species in mainland China and a checklist of the Chinese Glyphipterix.
