Abstract

ABSTRACT A new species of the Oriental tropical genus Belciana Walker, 1862, Belciana jeremyi sp. n., is described from northern Thailand, Lampang Province. The new species is closely related to Belciana hemodi (Felder & Rogenhofer, 1874). Adults, male and female genitalia as well as multi-locus molecular data of the new and related species are presented. The genus Belciana most probably originated in the Oriental region during the Miocene and radiated in the late Miocene, about 11 Mya. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:FF769B71-2F17-479A-939A-7AF0E74320BD
