A new genus Aurivalva Li & Wang gen. nov. is proposed for Nygmiini to accommodate three species previously placed in Euproctis Hübner: A. yunnanpina (Chao, 1984) comb. nov., A. telephanes (Collenette, 1939) comb. nov. and A. conistica (Collenette, 1936) comb. nov.. The new genus is supported by DNA barcodes and morphological evidence. A key to all currently recognized Aurivalva species in China is provided, with illustrations of the adults, wing venations and genitalia, together with a barcode-based tree.
