Diagnosis. Thecobathra acrivalvata is similar to T. albana Liu, 1980 . It can be distinguished by the outer margin of the socius obtusely produced between middle and distal 1/4, and the valva concave on the ventral margin beyond end of the sacculus (Fan et al. 2008: 21, fig. 12). In T. albana, the socius is subparallel-sided in basal 3/4 and narrowed from distal 1/4 to apex, and the valva is not concave on the ventral margin (Fig. 11).

Description. Adult. Wingspan 13.0‒ 15.5 mm.

Female genitalia (Fig. 22). Apophyses posteriores 1.5 times length of apophyses anteriores. Ventral arms of apophyses anteriores connected with lamella postvaginalis. Lamella postvaginalis broadly and shallowly concave medially on posterior margin, forming two mound-shaped lobes lined with long setae. Antrum 1/4 length of ductus bursae, slightly narrower than ductus bursae. Ductus bursae twice length of corpus bursae, sclerotized in posterior 1/3. Corpus bursae round; signum with lateral flange from broad base narrowed to obutse apex.

Distribution. China (Guizhou, Hunan, Xizang, Zhejiang).

Note. The female is described for the first time.
