Thorax: Forewings narrowly triangular with a complicated wing pattern consisting of black lines on a white or whiteyellowish background: antemedian line consisting of two lines: the inner one straight towards the inner margin, outer line forming a large U-shaped line continuing in the reniform stigma and costa, between the lines same color as ground color; postmedian line rather large at costa; hind wing with well represented ante- and postmedian black lines and a series of black spots in the postmedian fascia. Abdomen: White with some black scaling dorsally forming a large “ O ” and some white scaling limiting the distal edge of the tegumen of each segment. Wingspan: 17 – 21 mm. Tympanal organs: Invaginated. Male genitalia: (Figs 1 – 3) Typical Glyphodes type genitalia: distal part uncus slender, ventrally with long setae, ventral part long slender on a wide tegumen, ventrally as a U-shaped structure with a wide saccus. Valva rounded, rather short, membranous, sacculus with a simple fibula. Valva a bit wider than C. onychinalis and with a fibula slightly longer; Aedeagus tubular, one part sclerotized over its longitudinal length, vesica membranous, cornutus lacking. Female genitalia: (Figs 7 & 9) Papillae anales with short and long setae; apophyses posteriores and anteriores: narrow, well sclerotized; apophyses anteriores almost twice the length of the apophyses posteriores: ostium wide, calyx-shaped; ductus bursae half width of corpus bursae; the latter long ovoid with a simple bilobed signum composed of multiple small sclerotisations. Distribution: The species is restricted to the African continent. At present no specimens have been collected from the African islands Madagascar, Comores. Host plant: unknown.	en	Maes, Koen V. N.
