Abstract

The little known species Nudina xizangensis Fang, 2000 is rediscovered from its type locality, Beibeng, Motuo County, Southeast Xizang, with genitalia of both sexes illustrated for the first time. Based on its unique genitalia structure, a new lichen moth genus, Paranudina Huang Wang gen. nov., is described with N. xizangensis as the type species. Adults and genitalia of Paranudina xizangensis (Fang, 2000) comb. nov. and Nudina artaxidia (Butler, 1881) are compared and illustrated.
