We describe a new Lithosiini genus Setteleia gen. nov. for four new
species from the Philippines: S.
witti sp. nov. (Mindanao Island), S. carota sp. nov. (northern Luzon
Island), S. lourensi sp. nov.
(eastern Luzon Island) and S.
bakunawa sp. nov. (northern Luzon Island). The new genus belongs
to the Asura Walker, 1854 / Miltochrista Hübner, [1819] generic
complex and is related to the genera Moorasura
Volynkin & Huang, 2019, Sarbine Volynkin, 2019, Ammatho Walker, 1855 and Cyme
Felder, 1861 and also shares some genital characters with such genera
as Integrivalvia Volynkin
& Huang, 2019, Fossia
Volynkin, Ivanova & Huang, 2019 and Asuridia Hampson, 1900, but is
characterized by a number of autapomorphic features in both, male and
female genitalia.
Key words: Arctiinae, Lithosiini, New genus,
New species, Asia.
