Abstract

Inventory studies on the genus Agrioglypta Meyrick, 1932 have been conducted in Java, Sulawesi, and Papua during 2007–2011. This study also aims to explore the diversity of Agrioglypta in Indonesia, and the possible apomorphic characteristics, especially genitalic characters, that support the monophyly of the genus. Three new species were discovered, A. hastantiae sp. nov., A. ubaidillahi sp. nov., and A. halimunensis sp. nov., for a total of nine species of the genus recorded in Indonesia. Images of adults and genitalia are provided for all new species.
