Stenoloba benedeki sp. n. (Figs 4-5, 12, 14) Holotype - Male, "N. VIETNAM, Mt. Fan-si-pan, W-side, Chapa, 22°20'N, 103°40'E, 1600-1800 m, Apr. 1995, leg. Sinjaev et Sammler, ex coll. Schintlmeister", "MUSEUM WITT"; slide No. 7127 RONKAY (coll. HNHM Budapest). Paratypes - 5 males, 2 females, with the same data as the holotype (coll. HNHM and G. RONKAY). Slide No. 7128 RONKAY (female). Diagnosis - The new species belongs to the S. olivacea species-group, resembling externally mostly S. olivacea (WlLEMAN, 1914) and S. fixai KONONENKO et RONKAY, 2000, but is easily separable from all relatives by its external as well as genital features. Stenoloba benedeki is significantly smaller than S. olivacea but larger than S. futii, its forewing ground colour is somewhat darker olive-greenish with much finer, less distinct, less conspicuous dark pattern, the lower part of the median area is less darkened than those of the related two species and the hindwing is suffused with greyish, not whitish as in S. olivacea and S. futii. Figs 16-17. Genitalia: 16 = Stenoloba lanceola sp. n., male, holotype; 17 = S. futii KONONENKO et RONKAY, 2000, male, paratype
