Barsochrista ocellata ( Hampson, 1907) View in CoL , comb. nov. ( Figs. 5, 6 View FIGURES 1 – 6 , 9 View FIGURES 7 – 9 , 12 View FIGURES 10 – 12 )

Miltochrista ocellata Hampson, 1907 , The Annals and Magazine of Natural History (7) 19: 234 (Type locality: [Sri Lanka] "Ceylon,

Ohiya").

Type material examined. Holotype (by monotypy): ♀, handwritten grayish label " Ceylon, Ohyia, Sept., de Mowbray, 1904-39 " / handwritten grayish label " Miltochrista ocellata type ♀ Hmpsn." / printed yellowish ring label with a red circle " Type " / printed white label with QR-code " NHMUK010604469 About NHMUK " (Coll. NHM).

Other material examined. 2 ♂, 1 ♀, [ Sri Lanka] Maskelyia , Ceylon, October / Brit. Mus. 1951-288, slide NHMUK010313523 About NHMUK Volynkin (♂) (Coll. NHM) ; 1 ♀, [ Sri Lanka] Ohiya / Brit. Mus. 1927-341 / Miltochrista ocellata ♀ Hmpsn., slide NHMUK010313414 About NHMUK Volynkin (♀) (Coll. NHM) .

Diagnosis. Externally, the species ( Figs. 5, 6 View FIGURES 1 – 6 ) is similar to the pale form of B. kishidai ( Figs. 3, 4 View FIGURES 1 – 6 ), but differ by its slightly broader forewings with slightly smaller elliptical discal spot. The male genitalia ( Fig. 9 View FIGURES 7 – 9 ) is very similar to that of B. kishidai ( Figs. 7, 8 View FIGURES 7 – 9 ), differing in the larger uncus, shorter vinculum, valva broader medially, larger costal process, and the less setose dorsal margin of sacculus. In the female genitalia, B. ocellata ( Fig. 12 View FIGURES 10 – 12 ) has smaller spines in the ring-like medial cluster.
