Material examined. Holotype ♂: Colombia, Santander, road Duitama- Charala 6º03′38′′N / 73º12′53′′W, H= 2000 m, 11−14.03.16, leg. Victor Sinyaev & Machado (GenPr- Heterocera MWM 37.001 ) ( MWM).

Description. Male. Length of fore wing 13 mm. Fore wing short, wide, brown, with dense reticulated pattern of brown undulated lines throughout all wing, fringe mottled: dark-brown at veins (in thick bundles), brown between veins. Hind wing dark-brown with poorly noticeable reticulated pattern, fringe mottled, brown at veins (in thick bundles), light-brown between veins.

Male genitalia. Uncus split to base by deep notch, uncus halves leaf-like, wide; gnathos arms very short, thin; valve short, costal and abdominal edges practically smooth, very long process of distal end of costal edge; juxta large, scaphoid abdominal process almost reduced; saccus poorly expressed, semicircular; phallus thick, slightly shorter than valve, vesica without cornuti.

Female. Unknown.

Diagnosis. The new species clearly differs from all known species of the genus by the very long process on the distal end of the costal edge of the valve.

Distribution. Colombia.

Etymology. The new species is named after the Russian Romantic writer, poet and painter Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov.
