Hyalospectra labi Holloway sp. n.
♂♂ 10,12mm. The facies is somewhat similar to that of pustularia, but only the hindwing has a dark brown medial band broken by paler veins, the latter more regular and longitudinal. The forewing hyaline areas are relatively reduced, and dark brown markings are restricted to broken, irregularly curved post- and antemedials. The male genitalia have rather splayed digitate socii. The interior processes of the valves are more complex than in altipustularia. In pustularia they consist of long, slender spines, the left one twice the length of the right. The distal margins of the eighth sclerites are characteristically lobed.
