Abstract


A new record genus for Xizang, the genus Ipimorpha Hübner, [1821] 1816, was discovered during a survey of the Lalu Wetland in Lhasa in 2021. This genus which has only two species in China including Ipimorpha retusa (Linnaeus, 1761) and Ipimorpha subtusa ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775), was first reported in Xizang. A detailed description of the adult morphology and external genitalia is given, together with pictures of the adults, photographs of the external genitalia, and information on their distribution in China and abroad. The specimens are preserved at the Institute of Plateau Ecology, Tibet Agricultural and Animal Husbandry University.
