New genus and two new species are described from the Philippines, suggesting distinct classification implications.
A new genus and two new species are described from the Philippines: Miosterpa Crispolon & Yap gen. nov., with two new species, M. flammarubra Crispolon & Soulier-Perkins gen. et sp. nov., and M. kalanguya Crispolon & Yap gen. et sp. nov. Male genitalia are described and illustrated. Identification keys to Philippine species of Miosterpa and key to the Philippine genera of Poeciloterpina Schmidt, 1920 are provided. Molecular data support the description of Miosterpa as a genus distinct from Mioscarta Breddin, 1901 and Poeciloterpa Stål, 1870. A short note on the subtribal classification of the genus Trigonoschema Crispolon & Soulier-Perkins, 2021 is also included.
