Diagnosis. Adult ( Fig. 4 ) forewing length 4.5–6.5 mm. Blastobasis sprotundalis is similar to B. parki Sinev, 1986 and B. drymosa Adamski & Li, 2010 in the male genitalia by the dorsal part of the valva having costal process with a row of elongate spine-like setae, and a transverse, bandlike juxta. It can be separated from B. parki and B. drymosa in the male genitalia by the gnathos lacking medial denticles on the posterior margin ( Fig. 14 ), whereas the gnathos has two medial denticles on the posterior margin of the latter two species. In the female genitalia, B. sprotundalis can be separated from B. parki and B. drymosa by the eighth sternum having a darkly pigmented posterior spot medially ( Fig. 24 ), whereas the latter two species lack a pigmented spot.

Distribution. China (Anhui, Beijing, Chongqing, Fujian, Gansu, Guangdong, Guizhou, Hebei, Heilongjiang, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Inner Mongolia, Jilin, Liaoning, Shandong, Shanxi, Sichuan, Tianjin, Zhejiang), Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu, Kyushu, Shikoku), Korea (Gwangreung, Muju, Suweon, Weonju), Russia (Primorsky Krai).
