New records of tortricid moths in India expand knowledge of Olethreutinae, suggesting greater diversity.
Three species of tortricid moths of the subfamily Olethreutinae, viz., Acanthoclita acrocroca Diakonoff, 1982, Age onychistica Diakonoff, 1982 and Bactra coronata Diakonoff, 1950, were recorded for the first time from India. The species, Acroclita cheradota Meyrick, 1912 is transferred from Acroclita Lederer, 1859 to Ancylophyes Diakonoff, 1988 as Ancylophyes cheradota (Meyrick, 1912) comb. nov. A key to all species of the genus Ancylophyes Diakonoff, 1988 is provided. Images of adults and genitalia and distribution maps are provided for each of the four studied species.
