Abstract

The Vietnamese species belonging to the genus Lecithocera Herrich-Schäffer of the family Lecithoceridae (Gelechioidea) are reviewed. Thirteen species of Lecithocera including eight new species: Lecithocera alpina Park, sp. nov., L. canitia Park, sp. nov., L. criniptera Park, sp. nov., L. hana Park, sp. nov., L. haviensis Park, sp. nov., L. nara Park, sp. nov., L. orbicuculla Park, sp. nov., and L. tamdaoica Park, sp. nov., are recognized. In the revision, the genus Lecithocera is divided into three species-groups based on the different condition of wing venation: the cuspidata species-group with M₁ and CuA₁ stalked in the hindwing; the rotundata species-group with M₁ and CuA₁ coincident in the hindwing; and the indigens species group with M₂ and M₃ stalked in the forewing. For these newly known species in Vietnam, adults and their genitalia are illustrated, and all available taxonomic data are provided.
